Somerville, MA | Good news and bad news...
An RCN executive just informed me that the local/broadcast stations in Boston WILL BE ENCRYPTED on April 10, and that the website's spreadsheet indicating otherwise is incorrect.
The good news, and despite the FAQ, is that the company will provide an HD box free for one or two years, under the FCC order... but you have to request it.
Despite occasions blips, sometimes serious ones, I continue to love RCN. I just wish they left the broadcast channels in the clear, because after the free year, we will all have to either rent an HD box or go back to rabbit ears. |
