If so, then I will point out that if you are dropping cable, then you are NOT using QAM. QAM is only used by cable. OTA is done via ASTC, which is not supported by any of the ceton brand hardware (as far as I know). And QAM is indeed becoming less useful by the year. Most providers are offering less and less content over QAM as time goes on. Now that the FCC has clear them to encrypt even the local channels, there probably are already some cable system that have absolutely no unencrypted QAM content, and I can only assume that such setups will become more common over the next few years.<br>
