Sheldon and all,
I have asked the Comcast Representative who is an ex officio member of MTN'S
board to respond to your questions regarding drifting channels. I believe
they drift off into the more expensive tiers. It is vital that in
Minneapolis we keep the Public, Education and Government channels in the
lower tiers so that all subscribers can receive them. In some other markets
Comcast has moved them up into the digital ozone.
