Crystal clear here. Im watching Jay Leno drive one of the first rotary powerd vehicles. Looks like a Alfa had sex with a Jag E type and a Ford Tbird.

Well if you dont have A HDTV or a plasma type led TV with a digital tuner you are screwed because the speed channel is now transmitted in digital format and our analog tv sets now need a digital converter box which can be supplied by your friendly ripoff cable company for 6 bucks a month,and thats per tv set because you will need one for each tv.I called em up and they told me this i said that they suck.

I dont really think its the local cable Co that did it.I would think that its done from the main source which would be the trasmission point aka speedchannel.BUT i could be wrong. If it is from the main source (speedchannel) a pettition wouldnt do diddly squat. So this will be only the begining and more and more channels will eventually be digital and if we consumers dont buy the new tv sets with digital capability we will be buying their digital converter boxes for our outdated analog tv sets.what a way to get ya to buy a digital tv huh. Hey Big Al chime in on this,do you have a digital tv with the digital reciever? your post said it was crystal clear which sounds like you do have one.

We just bought a new HDTV, its fancy  I forgot what kind, but it doesn't work on any of our TV's new & old. We just have regular cable, so maybe that has something to do with it

Same thing here. It works on my digital boxes, but not on my regular TV without a cable box.

Good news. We just got SC. Not sure when we did.
Bad news. I need a box. So I can't watch it on my bedroom TV or my computer. Damn.
