What is nice about digital broadcasts is that when you have the signal, you
have it all. No snow,
No herringbone patterns. Crisp and clean, with no caffeine.

Except when it breaks up.


Nope. If you tune the signal, you get ALL of the data. You must exceed
more than ten percent bit error rate for a dropout to occur, and it is
bit error rate that matters most for a "tuned" channel.

I have a cable TV set top box. There's no tuning involved. It still breaks up
occasionally.


IT tunes itself, dip****.

Which part of " There's no tuning involved " didn't you understand ?

You press a button, it gives you the channel. Of course I know it does any internal
tuning required in firmware.
