[mythtv-users] What FCC ruling requires OTA digital unencrypted?

	Hey all... starting to play with HDTV and digital with the arrival 
of a QAM-capable HDTV set.  After auto-tuning, it found a few digital 
channels, but with "unusable signal."  I suspect the local Adelphia is not 
providing anything unencrypted.

	According to what I've read around here, the FCC ruling requires 
that OTA-receivable signals are provided unencrypted, no?  Can anyone cite 
chapter and verse of the ruling that requires it so I can go bust some 
heads with tech support?

Thanks,
-Cory
