    Yeah you're right. It's right next to Beaverton though.

    Yeah, I know. The boundaries are weird. Probably due to annexation wars back in the 50s and 60s as Beaverton and Portland looked to expand their tax bases. I've lived in the same area for the last 27 years. My first two addresses were Beaverton, but I could literally throw a rock in 3 directions (N, E, W) and hit Portland. 2 years ago, I moved a mile west and now have a Portland address for the first time. Go figure.

    TV has been digital for a while. The audio would be digitized somewhere along the way, likely long before it gets to Comcast. It seems like it wouldn't just be Comcast that has messed up audio.

    Well, that's not at all awkward.

    And, you need to at least buy me dinner before there will be any touching! I may be easy, but I'm not cheap.

    The sound seems extra bad tonight on my surround sound system. Loud high pitch hissing sound.

    I'm getting really bad screeching during tonights game. Only on Comcast any other channel goes away. Sucks I have to watch either muted or not at all. Started giving me a headache.

    Even in stereo it's awful and you're right it even worse than normal. Sounds like a Dalek invasion... Like a ring modulator is being used.

    No monopoly. Same issues, so it doesn't seem to be comcast's fault.

    Frontier gets their channel from Comcast so...

    Denny, Comcast is the only provider of this channel therefore it is a monopoly.

    It's HCP's fault.
