spectrum join:2011-01-14	FM disappeared for me roughly around the same time (within a week or two), I just assumed it was due to the DNU, i guess that might not be the case though.

yyzlhr join:2012-09-03 Scarborough, ON kudos:1	reply to jtl999 No idea, what DNU is but I'm assuming it means they're transitioning the analogue channels to digital only? Does that actually allow for faster internet speeds? I thought the spectrum used for analogue channels can't be used for DOCSIS?

kevinds join:2003-05-01 Calgary, AB	Yes, spectrum for analog can be used for any/all digital services, digital channels, internet. 1 analog station equates to about 38 mbps internet. -- Yes, I am not employed and looking for IT work. Have passport, will travel.

ravenchilde join:2011-04-01 kudos:2	reply to kevinds said by kevinds: Easist way to tell, is if you have full cable (tiers 1, 2, or 3) connect a TV to analog cable, and see if you can get the tiers channels. If you don't have Tiers 1, 2, or 3 you shouldn't be able to see the channels in analog either though. This isn't quite right as there are a lot of steps to DNU. First the analogue Tier 1,2,3 channels have to be removed (they are already being sent in digital as well). Then if the CMTS equipment is ready, within a short period of time some of the channels can be re-purposed for additional internet tiers.

spectrum join:2011-01-14	reply to jtl999 I phoned Shaw again, they definitely still don't have BB250 in my area, and have no plans/ETA on when/if it might become available. They also said my area had only completed 1 of the 3 upgrades needed.
