Many cable operators in North America are transmitting the high definition ATSC channels on their cable networks. They also broadcast the basic cable channels in using clear QAM.

Note: you need to be using either the Hauppauge WinTV v7 application, or Windows Media Center with TV Pack 2008 or Windows 7, for clear QAM TV compatibility.
