[QUOTE="RonD, post: 948914, member: 117536"] Joe, You would need an antenna to get ATSC. TVfool will give you some idea if you are close to the stations and can get a simple antenna setup. I've never tried to setup cable/QAM, but think you should try the following 1. disable the analog tuners, only enable the ATSC/QAM 2. select 1 of the QAM tuners, set the "Tune QAM" checkbox, leave the QAM tuning option at default. Does your cable-company have any info on the QAM mode? 3. press "scan" and let it run to the end, this could take a while but should find channels. Most will be encrypted, some will be QAM basic. if you do not find any channels, try changing the QAM tuning option. 4. go to the TV Channel in TV Server Config, the "red" channels are encrypted, you should be able to view the "green" basic QAM channels. I think you then need to view the channels to see what is on each QAM basic channel to identify the channel, you can then modify/edit the channel name to match The HDHR tuners have some MePo setup help for their tuners, the basic instructions for steps #6, #8 and #9 should work for the 2250 [url]http://www.silicondust.com/support/hdhomerun/instructions/mediaportal/[/url] HDHR also has info from other QAM basic cable users that might help with setup.
