Please clear this up for me, Patty. Are you saying Comacast puts the HD 
versions of the OTA stations in the clear on their cable using QAM? Or 
is it just a QAM feed of the same digital SD that's on the low-numbered 
channels?

Someone told me the signals were available to any TV that can decode 
QAM, but I didn't think it was the high-def signals.

ALso, if they are HD, do they feed through at the same resolutions as 
the stations are broadcasting them OTA?
