Re: Mo Money, Mo Money, Mo Money

Talking about audio. The higher tier digital channels broadcast in 5.1....the lower tiers in stereo....

Yet the way the Scientific Atlanta Explorer is configured, it doesn't intelligently alert your receiver of the difference....

SO you need to manually switch the audio if say you WERE watching local news, and say switch to Starz to watch a film in 5.1.

Not a big deal, but combined with what I like to call "Sun F$#@" distortion, the quality leaves a little to be desired.

get a pioneer av tuner... it knows to select analog when digital is not available, then back to digital when channel 101 or higher is selected. Took me about 6 months to figure this out.

Then you still have worse picture quality on the analog channels is the other problem. I got rid of my cable anyway, I'm much happier with directv and DSL.
