Do any networks or network providers provide free or accessible ATSC channels in the LA area?
Is it FTA, or do they require a CI/CAM?
Have a look here:

Once you've selected your zip code, it will tell you what you have via ATSC over the air, and ATSC-Qam through your cable companies.
I have some scripts which use this to build a channels.conf if you'd like..
Thanks Rob
Is there a CI/CAM option with ATSC-QAM cards? Or are the cable network encryption mechanisms proprietary (needing PVR with HDMI to get into VDR)?
