The last timed I played with my HDHomeRun on Cox, I was able to
receive the local channels in HD and a couple others with no problem.
I could not how ever receive the Discovery or the History channels at
all. Once again though like I said in my previous email it has been a
while since I have played with that box and things may have changed
since then.
