    ATSC and Cable Channels in one cable

    Thanks! I wish they were converting signal to QAM instead of sending as ATSC signal. That would have given me option of switching (A/B Switch) to Antenna only for few channels that are not provided in cable.

    DTV With Scan Override?

    I have Westinghouse 32W6 and I can add channel by going to menu- find channel and enter the channel number related to frequency(not DTV channel number), it will scan and add the specific channels. I do not have to do a complete scan.

    CM 4228- A question

    Exactly. Sorry, I could not get the right words to explain clearly. I am about 35miles away from the towers and I do not have line of sight as I am in a apartment complex. Cross connecting has made some difference for me and signal has become more stable. I was wondering how it got improved.
