rbnick......I wish I had one hundred thousand customers like you in my system. I've been fighting for the past 2 years to get people to understand why switching inputs is the best thing they can do for picture quality of our analog and digital channels! The biggest fight I get is most subscribers don't like switching inputs. Thank you for educating the few select people that have enough presence of mind to read HD forums, which I cruise looking for information I can use and more importantly, see what issues people are bringing to the table. Most excellent write up and I look forward to seeing what the rest of this HD forum has to offer.
