For KMSBHD and KOLDHD (the 103.35 MHz channels), the output is exactly the same, except the signal to noise ratio is 36 instead of 40. From amplifier design classes in the far distant past, I would think those are very good SNRs, especially for digital information. Yes or no?No correctable or uncorrectable errors reported on any of the channels -- once tuned. (on edit -- maybe there where a few and I didn't look long enough -- it doesn't give an error count)There is a brief burst of uncorrectable errors when changing from one channel to another. I can't see a clear difference in the number or errors whether the channel change is within or across frequencies.(on edit -- it's more errors when changing across frequencies)No, had to leave a message - no return yet. I'm on it.I still have 3 hooked up - but only for very rare playback.Interesting -- maybe. But I suspect my cable signal strength is much higher than from an antenna, even with the splitters --On edit:Switching service entrance splitter connections to increase the HTPC input by 3.5db increased the SNR of the 103.25 MHz channels to 37 from 36. It also product a few correctable errors, and an occasional uncorrectable error. No improvement in recording the 103.25 MHz channels when some other recording is already in progress.As expected, this dropped the cable modem up and down stream power levels by ~3db, with a minor decrease in performance.Eliminating the other splitter I mentioned produced a very unexpected, negative result. Not sure I believe it, so will try it again tomorrow.</blockquote>
