Yes, it is excluded from the digital cable source.

No, it should not be providing it to the source sd-digitial (sic) in my

sd-cable where it is not excluded.

Yes, I recall frustration several months ago when I was trying to
customize my lineups.

Ok, thanks, please go ahead and reset my lineup.

CableOne just announced the end of analogue in my area, so it is not
worth pursuing this issue that will disappear in a few weeks.
