Thanx,

You originally had Analog cable, same channels as OTA up to 13, then switched to a different spectrum for the rest.

Then with the big Digital change-over you had to have a QAM tuner to get unencrypted digital cable TV.

Now, many cable companies have changed to encrypted digital service which requires a set-top box in order to receive even the basic free and local channels. Some TVs may have a provision for a CableCard which allows the TV itself to decrypt the signals.
