Frankg has written to me to correct my statement at the Select Board meeting tonight.
Here is what he forwarded to me
Q: Does this have anything to do with the Digital Broadcast Transition?
A: No, and it´s important to understand the difference between this change and the Digital Broadcast Transition. These are two unrelated events. This change to your service is driven by a desire to strike an appropriate balance between the interests of our digital cable customers and our remaining analog customers. The federally mandated Digital Broadcast Transition in February 2009 impacts over-the-air broadcasters, but not cable companies. Every television connected to Comcast cable will continue to work after this change to the way broadcasters transmit their signals. Because we´ve pledged to continue serving both analog and digital customers, only those using an antenna to receive over-the-air signals will be impacted
Thanks to frankg for the info. I'll look into the ...
... future impact of this transition and update you in future posts
