The only channel that TransACT have advised is digital is the ABCKids 
channel which only came on recently - seems to be a bit crisper than the 
other channels, but could be just wishful thinking - the digitisation of 
the other channels by TransACT (presumably) is pretty good.

The STB has separate video and audio outlets as well as a composite RF 
for those that can't handle the video.  I feed the videpo and stereo 
audio to my VCR on a Lie input and then the same out of the VCR to the 
TV, that way I can feed the stereo channels to the HiFi setup.
