OK, I don't understand the tech talk, but does this mean we will now get more channels in the clear QAM?
don't expect any more channels in the clear (aside from locals and music channels). they will all be encrypted and require a set top or cable card to decode. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20728908 Tue, 01 Jul 2008 22:07:46 EDT Re: rollout http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20727903 TurtleFan : OK, I don't understand the tech talk, but does this mean we will now get more channels in the clear QAM?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20727903 Tue, 01 Jul 2008 18:32:46 EDT Re: rollout http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20726513 maxpower :

You got it right. This has nothing to do with GPON. Verizon is eliminating analogs, and expanding out their QAM service (to a full 870MHz)

Don't think so. It was about the elimination of analog and conversion to all digital that was the prerequisite as I understand.

BPon and GPon is about more channels/faster internet, though don't quote me on that one. ;)

As those changes roll into these markets, Verizon is adding channels.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20725838 Tue, 01 Jul 2008 12:07:41 EDT Re: rollout http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20725664 walliser : Don't think so.
