Not sure where you guys get your info. Cox does NOT carry the Outdoor Channel in HD and the last time I asked that was indefinite, according to the local Cox office here in Deer Valley. Just wanted to let you know in case Cox is actually trying to make you believe they are carrying it. In my neighborhood, Cox is on VERY thin ice and many of us are tired of the bad signals we receive. It is constantly being worked on but with no great improvements up till now. I fear that a lot of us will have the extra cost of the satellite companies here soon if Cox does not get this under control.

Anyway, just letting you know what the truth is at least for this area.

Just to be fair, we have noticed this last week the signals in our area have improved greatly. On the May 24th note, the screen was actually blanking out and there was pixelization almost constantly. So something has changed for the best. Now if they would ever get the Outdoor Channel in HD I would be a happier camper.
