Toshiba 52 in DLP, had the cable company ( Cox )out about 2 weeks ago, to
install a cable card in my TV as it has a built in tuner and there is no
need for a external box, the problem I am having is, I can't get all the
channels in high def I am supose to all the time.

The cable company has been out 2 times checked the signal,programed the
card, all the connections and every thing checks out, they re-program the
set to learn the channels, that works for a day or so then I start to loose
channels, they are telling me that the TV manufacture and the cable card
manufacture ,are sometimes not on the same page and its takes the card a few
times to learn and hold the channels.


Something wrong if the system keeps dropping channels. It's unlikely
that repeated programming will help.

Got them coming out tomorrow to check it out again and I want a different
card.

Anyone else experiencing the same or similar problems, with a cable card.(
Motorola card ) I don't want a big ass cable box on the tv when I paided for
a built in tuner.


That "big ass cable box" (which may be small) will greatly improve
versatility. It will mean you have access to the signal, and can feed
it to anything you want (such as a DVD recorder). It would also help
you to localize the problem (it is the cable box or the TV?).

Thanks
Tom
