Re: What is going on with digital channels? (MD area)

I noticed the same thing. Does anyone know why this happened? Most of the digital subchannels are gone or have moved. I just dont have the time to scan every channel to find out where they might be.

The only digital subs I have now are 20-1 (WDCA) and 50-1.

Yes - the reason these may have changed, is the QAM tuner uses the frequency number, similar to over the air radio 96.9. Comcast may have changed some frequencies of channels around causing this to happen. People with cable boxes aren't going to notice cause the box is updated by Comcast right away, updates are usually done after mid-night anyways. It is usually an indication of upgrades, making more room for channels in the future. It could also be caused by other upgrades like system (cable box software updates).

If you call into tech support for your area they may have the QAM list of frequencies available to go over with you if you need to.

I did some searching and I found a few of them but they are all over the place.

Think it might be time to call Verizon and look into FIOS.
