Hi Steve and Jen,

I have Comcast service both in Boston and in Manchester, NH. I'm in New Hampshire right now, and seeing your post, I checked to see if I finally have MSNBC HD and Comedy Central HD; I don't. Maybe it's just in Boston for now (I won't be there for a few weeks), but if you could shed some light on the situation, I'd appreciate it. Comcast keeps us waiting too much!

We are about halfway between Boston and Manchester. I would suggest giving Comcast a call to see when the new channels will be coming to your area.

I live in Boston proper and still don't have the new HD additions. I checked with Comcast yesterday and they gave me a line about a "broadcast license," which I know from working in the industry, is wrong. I know the analog bandwidth has been reclaimed in my neighborhood, because I can get DOCSIS 3.0 HSD speeds, but still no Comedy Central of MSNBC HD. Does anyone in Boston proper have these channels yet? If so, which neighborhood are you in? Thanks!

I just noticed I now have MSNBC HD on channel 901 in Boston. I live in Charlestown. Seems it just started today! No Comedy Central HD yet though, but I called Comcast today and they said its looking to be around February 1 for folks in City of Boston
