[opendtv] Re: My new TV supports QAM

I believe the last time it was discussed here we left it that the low end digital sets probably did not have unencrypted QAM support. My post was another data point to that discussion. But if everyone else remembers differently then please excuse the redundancy.
Again, I believe sets like my new one with QAM will likely become the standard expectation for "cable ready" and "lifeline cable" going forward but some digital TV's are still likely exceptions this year.

Tom;

Having DTV capability means it can receive 8-VSB and QAM.  You must not have
been paying attention hereabouts the several times this has been discussed.
It's actually in the rules.

Think: cable plug and play.  How could you expect that to work if the tv
sets didn't receive QAM?
