Q: Will I be able to receive
High Definition Television over cable?
A:
It is
technically possible for digital High Definition Television to be transmitted
over a cable system's existing cable channel. However, there is no guarantee
that your local cable operator will carry the signal. A recent Supreme Court
decision states that cable companies are required to carry local channels;
however, the ruling did not specifically address digital high definition
channels. CBS and Time Warner Cable have signed an agreement to carry the CBS
digital television signal on Time Warner Systems that have been upgraded for
increased channel capacity (750 MHz or more). Contact your local cable company
to determine if they are offering the CBS HDTV channel.
