Were you able to actually find any valid signals above 125?

The HDHR found 5 clear QAM channels on 126, 807000000, and from a quick viewing
in the wee hours, they seem to be local access type stuff. But who knows if
more interesting channels will be added at the higher frequencies as WOW goes
through their digital transition. The HVR-1600 didn't see them. Probably not
its fault, it's got more splitters in the way. I'm hoping to test both of my
HVR-1600s, one at a time, in a room that eliminates two splitters in the next
few days.
I've been looking into this because my cable provider, WOW, is getting serious
about digital starting mid-May and I'm thinking about doing some rewiring and
relocating of the HVR-1600s so I can get full use out of them. Right now, I'm
only using the digital half on one card and analog on both. The one card I'm
using for digital can only see about half the QAM channels that the hdhr and
our HDTVs can see.
Since the drivers do support up to channel 134, do you think someone should
update the data files that are included with dvb-apps like
us-Cable-Standard-center-frequencies-QAM256 to at least go up to 134? Seems to
me that, as the files stand, cable subscribers might not be seeing all the
channels they should with their dvb devices.
Many thanks to you and Andy for answering my questions,
Helen
