A while back, I posted about my troubles getting QAM to work after Comcast moved the channels. After much testing, I realized that my 1600 worked if I bypassed the signal amplifier & that my 1800 just wouldn't do QAM. It works for OTA, so I know the digital tuner is working.
Today, I finally entered a support issue on Haupauge's web site. I've heard they sometimes aren't really helpful. Therefore, I decided to do some more investigating myself. I ran FilterCheck & noticed some differences between the 1600 & the 1800. Not really understanding what the differences mean, I decided to post here & hope someone could explain to me if they indicated a problem while I wait to hear back from Hauppauge. I attached the FilterCheck.log to this, but I will highlight the differences here (I'm almost positive that 418 refers to the 1600 & 885 refers to the 1800):
Thanks in advance for any help
