Reception of Antenna TV (50-2) In Fairfax VA

[Peter Parker]

I have a set hooked up to Cox Cable and nothing else. I have no converter box. For some time now I have been enjoying antenna TV on 50-2. It disappeared about 10 days ago and I finally got around to calling Cox. They insist to me that they have never carried the channel and That I iust be getting it OTA. I guess my question is am i the only one who has seen the channel disappear?

I will check when I get home.

 

[Peter Parker]

thanks. A second call pretty much got me the same answer----that they never carried the digital subchannels in the lowest tier and that I must somehow be getting OTA signals using my QAM tuner.

 

[navychop]

I'm getting 50-2 OTA just fine.

 

[Peter Parker]

UTA yes. the question is has Cox stopped delivering it to those of us on the lowest t er. Their story to me----we never carried it you are geting it OTA on your QAM tuner----makes no sense.

 

[Peter Parker]

Verified in another forum that Cox seems to have made a change----whether the CSRs know it or not.

 

[navychop]

What, clueless CSRs? Surely you jest!

FWIW 50-2 seems to be back on Cox.
