How will my broadcast high-definition (HD) channels be affected by using a Digital Adapter?
The Digital Adapter (DTA) does not support HD signals. Comcast offer HD set-top boxes for a monthly service fee, which provides access to over 1,000 HD choices. If you wish to keep access to broadcast HD channels, you can continue to receive the Limited Basic channels (including broadcast HD) without Comcast equipment; however, Expanded Basic channels or higher channel levels would not be accessible. As an alternative, some HD television sets have multiple RF inputs and in this case, you could use a splitter on the incoming cable feed. Detailed instructions for setting this up can be found here.
