I wanted to point out something else. Just a year later, Natick moved onto the Newton/Needham system when they upgraded their boxes to the "SmartGuide" which was cutting edge at the time, and there were a few differences. I remember channel 10 was the Weather Channel, I don't know why it's not showing up there, and I somehow think channel 4 had something on it, but I don't remember what, and ONLY in Natick, they put WSBE (36) PBS on channel 7. You're probably asking, why only in Natick? Why can't the other towns have it too? Because it was there before on their old cable system and they didn't want to get rid of it, whereas I don't think any of the other towns ever had it. Now I think it's available throughout most of Massachusetts.
