Lee, Boy you are a huge help. I have gone to the site, used their channel scan for my area by typing in my zip code. What I get does NOT include the channel(s) I need BUT they have a product "coming" that will do the job, at least according to the video they have for you to view. It says this box will allow you to have the same channels as the unencrypted channels from your cable company and they don't mention that it will work on the Mac but the Mac logo appears on one of their screens so I am assuming it will.
Thank you again Lee, I'll check this out further, may call them tomorrow or see if I can leave them an email.
