Explore TV is not coming anymore. I guess they removed the channel once the carriage fee deal got over.

Today some of my neighbors shifted from DTH to Digital Cable
LCO was very happy and welcomed them with a big smile.

Digital Cable is the best but... Yes a big "but", only if LCO is a good chap bit in most cases that does not hold the test of waters

In our Area the LCO is a nice guy. His boys are also good and hard working. Sometimes I help my LCO in educating some of his customers regarding Digitization. Sometimes services gets affected but that's not his issue, its all from headend side.

That is really nice to know bro. In my area there is always hera pheri happening from LCO. He sides with the MSO which gives him more money . There r many cases also going on against him for defaulting payments. He has signals of both DEN and Hathway. Many times lines r down. Infact in 2008, , hathway digital cable lines were many times cut and later secret came out that it was the LCO who did it deliberately to force people to not opt for digital cable but as he had got contract money from hathway so he could not cut connections in a straight manner.

It was a chit bhi meri, patt bhi meri situation but now he himself wants max customers digitized after he renewed contract with hathway in 2012

Here there is monopoly. Only one MSO in my area, so LCOs have to take their service. There are others in other areas. But I think they have a mutual understanding hence they are not expanding into other areas.

Update: Many LCN no shuffled and some shifted to wrong section. What is this MSO doing ???

 

[IndianMascot]

First MSO to do channel number shuffling and that too messy

He would have done that while shuffling cards
