Last time I checked there were no digital black boxes out.
2 options:
1. Sat dish. I have acess to a card burner and can add tons of money to your account so you can order anything you want.
2. Analog Black box, Humm I wonder who has two sitting in his computer room not being used???

What is DTV? Is it cable or sat based. DTV - Digital TV??
Johny 5 need more info.
I been reading the internet all morning about Linux Digital Recorders. I ran acroos a board they sell that can receive sat signals and you can save them as avi files or play them on your tv.

Those filters are very intresting. This is the type of stuff I design at work. I could make them for less the $10 and make a killing. Has anyone ever used one before. I am very familar with the cable network system but do not know much about the digital cable stuff. It sounds strange that a cable box would let you see a show before it talks back to the headend.

I was under the impression that all homes receive all channels. At a certain point in time, the cable company sends the signal to the box and programs a "blocker". There is truly no way a cable company can tell what you are receiving if they're sending all channels to everyone.
I also did a "tiny" bit of research and learned that premium channels are sent at a higher frequency. The filter drops the frequency and allows the channels to "sneak by" the frenquency blocker. True or False?
I have no clue what I'm talking about. I just know I want all the channels. hehehe. but I hear Direct TV sucks in Billerica.
I also hear HDTV is free right now (through the airwaves like radio) and all you need is an antenna and converter. Nefarious showed me one night how he gets like 10-15 channels in HDTV / Widescreen Digital w/ 5.1 Surround. THAT IS MINT!!!

Cable Info
Now this is a great topic to talk about!!!
The Cable Company originally laid out its cable network as a one way broadcast system. All they cared about was sending the t.v. Signal in one direction from the headend to the home, this is called downstream broadcasting. As the Cable Company saw opportunities to increase their revenues they adapted the network into a bi-directional, two-way network. Which means information can be sent from the head end to the homes and also information from the homes and equipment on the poles back to the headed. The transmission back to the headend is done on the upstream frequency. This allowed the company to have a network with smarts. If an amp on the pole died, the cable network now could have enough smarts to notify a truck to go fix the failed equipment. Then came video and pay-per view. When a user wanted to order a movie on impulse they could use the remote and watch the movie. Your digital box will send information to the Cable Company on the upstream freq. In North America we use 6 MHz channeling, and support upstream transmission in the 5-42 MHz region.
Next to come along was the Cable modem. A cable modem listens on the downstream freq. and transmits on the upstream. This is very similar to the digital phones that the Cable Company installs in your house. So now we have the cable modem, set top boxes, digital phones, and equipment on the poles all receiving and transmitting information. The also use QPSK for upstream transmission and QAM modulation on the downstream.
Yes, Brian is correct that all home receive all channels. It is possible for the company to tell if you are receiving but it is very complex and they would never randomly check. Maybe if a building complex had only one cable bill and everyone else was stealing cable then maybe they would catch you but not for a signal apartment or house.
On analog boxes you are correct the premium channels are transmitted a little higher or lower then the standard. This causing the PLL (Phase locked loop) chip not to be able to lock on the signal. This is why the video is scrambled. A filter or convert will take this signal and bring it to the proper freq. and spacing your TV is looking for.
Yes, Direct TV sucks in areas that are wooded or very hilly. You need a clear view to the south. I know of a few people that barely got these dishes working in the winter and once the leaves grew on the trees in the summer the dish no longer worked.
I do not understand why the just do not broadcast everything from towers like the good old days and allow us to watch it for free.
OK, that is your lesson for today.

ok ftrain, since you know so much.... now I need all my channels. How can I do it? I have analog boxes, digital boxes, cable ready TV's, and old descramler boxes that shorted out. I'm pretty sure they didn't "zap" the descramler box, it just doesn't turn on. I think some kinda resistor blew.... maybe an inside fuse.
Can you work with any of that?

Bri
