Hello All,

I attempted my CC install yesterday.  I was able to get a channel map and
tune by virtual channel number for clearQAM only.  Pairing was
unseccessful.  I was told to swap out the card.  Today I tried the second
card and it was worse than the first.  This one didn't even get me a channel
map.  I was on the phone for almost two hours.  Now I am awaiting a call
from Comcast to schedule a truck roll.  Joy!!!
