I lived in apartment where I paid for comcast digital cable service with a CableCard installed in my HDTV.
I am now moving to an apartment where they only have Basic cable. Will my CableCard still receive digital cable?
I'm not moving with my comcast digital subscription, my new apartment is only paying for basic cable channels 1-74. Much cheaper.
Correct me if i'm wrong. Comcast scrambles their digital channels, as they can only be picked up and viewed by an activated HD set top box or a CableCard installed by a tech.
In my situation: My old roommate still rents out the house from where I moved from, and is still paying for the comcast digital bill since he has his own tv+HD set top box. We got the CableCard installed for free on my HDTV.
Since he is still paying for the equipment can it pick up digital channels in my new place with the CableCard. I will be paying for high speed internet from comcast + basic cable. (roommate only wants basic)
(I'm moving into the new apartment this Thursday) I can't test it.
