Hi

I had 2 M-cards installed for TivoHD units.

ALL channels come in digital now, I mean even below 100

They all get 'digital signal acquired' and the picture is awesome.
Analog below 62 was always a problem here in Boston, now it is perfect.

Does Comcast simulcast all analog as digital too?
 
Everything in Boston is simulcasted in digital - everything
 
That's why we always get HD before everyone else Boston area has the most advance and up to date system.

Everything in the SF Bay Area is digital simulcast as well. We are usually last to get HD channels. Advanced and up to date doesn't have anything to do with it.....
 
Why 2 M-Cards? Shouldn't it be 2 S-Cards or 1 M-Card? Just asking because I just had Comcast install a M-Card a couple of weeks ago.

We are still waiting for SciFi-HD up here in S. NH as well.

2 Tivo-HD units = 2 M-Cards. :)




Still waiting on SciFi-HD or anything new. It has been 8+ weeks since last addition, and Comcast said 50 new HD by end of 2008, AND MORE BY END OF 2007, that 2007 promise seemed lost and didn't happen!
