I have Comcast and two Myth boxes.  One with a PVR-350 and as of
yesterday one with the PVR-1600 like you.  I have had no issue with
getting these tuner cards or an old analog style card with no built in
encoder to work on the cable plant.  Just like you I also have their
'digital' service.  In fact one reason for going with Myth was I want
to get rid of their digital DVR box that im paying for monthly.
