I think you are correct. The issue I have is it is not on all channels so Gateway support pointed their finger at the my local cable company and told me "sorry can't help".

> maybe a call to the real manufacturer
I read an article that said it is an OEM Sampo...

I beleive the set is actually an EDTV, not 100% HDTV, (at least I know the built-in tuner is not HD), however, we feed it via the RGB output of a HDTV receiver from Cox cable and the HDTV feeds look fantastic. It's only standard 4:3 broadcasts where the lines show up on top.

Based on Gateway's support I would not buy another from them, but overall the TV is very enjoyable.

Thanks
