I asked if the analog channels were still being used and they advised me that ALL the channels now are digital. One of my neighbours also told me that a letter went out from c* advising them that after March 2006 analog is no longer supported.
Where are you located, because this is simply not true for most of the cvc area, all locals and family channels are still analog. The letter they received was probable for the premium channels
In NYC all channels have been in digital for a while and most channels are scrambled so you will need a box regardless. I don't htink they will dump analogs for locals until they absolutly have to though. Perhaps that letter was saying they will simulcast in digtal not completely turn of analog channels.
