Digital Mini Box

Started using the Cox digital mini box and found that some channels that I should be receiving as part of my TV package are not available or in other words, not being displayed. Remedy?

Keep in mind that the mini-box will only receive channels that  part of the starter and expanded service tiers if you're subscribed even if you have other traditional digital services on other TV sets.  Visit http://www.cox.com/channels for more information on what channels are available in your area and the package requirements.

I had a similar problem when I installed my Minibox.  Some channels came it perfectly, others all I got was a no signal message and a black screen.  These were channels that are part of the expanded services and definitely should have displayed.  To make a long story short, I found a bad ground on one connector, replaced the connector and all is well.  Not saying that is your issue but check all your wires and connectors.

Do they still make TVs that have cablecards slots? You could go 3rd party too like a Tivo or Moxi. Digital is the way of the future. The less efficient analog signal just takes up too much room/bandwidth. More channels, faster internet tiers = bye bye analog.
