That seems a little far-fetched to me. You're saying that:1) There's a PBS station (or any station) sending A/97 packets in San Diego/TJ
2) That Cox is passing on the A/97 packets 3) That your Mom's TV is A/97 compliant 4) That the manufacturer has supplied #1 with an update. 5) All of the above conditions are true Does Cox replicate the A/97 packets on all QAM channels, or do you have to tune to the PBS QAM channel to get the update?

And, here's something new. When I first did a digital channel scan, it couldn't find any; I had to do a manual search. The last time I ran a scan, NOT ONLY had a new "Cable 1hr" scan option been installed, but it found all the channels I had programmed, and more. Perhaps I need to explain what happened for the folks on Roosevelt Island. The TV set -- through the QAM tuner -- downloaded and installed a new scan option. Without her paying a cent, other than her basic analog cable monthly fee. (Which she has thought was too expensive for more than 42 years.) Think your set top box can update a television set? I know it "would be difficult" via a RGB connection. John Willkie
