Re: cable tv service

Isn't everything scrambled so it can be unscrambled in the box? (even basic channels) And the cable company could disconnect the cable to your house from the splitter to prevent use of black market box to steal service. Now that I re-looked at Moe's question.

They show what models of car have HD Radios.
Also, shows which model & make have HD.
Plus, Home Receivers and Portables.

Re: ASTC 3.0 or NextGen TV..........

seems that OTA is catching up with streaming and cable services. One question begs, how many stations are broadcasting now? your description implies new TVs won't also have a ATSC 1.0 compliant tuner as well, I think they will. my New TV still has a useless NTSC Analog tuner. I also expect older TV...

Re: Greetings!
