Contemporary Research brings a new addition to the successful QMOD lineup–a purpose-built Combiner (shipping shortly) that joins the QMOD HD and QMOD SDI modulators and the QMOD HDSC scaler. I like the way this product line takes advantage of a market development–built in digital tuners–to give ProAv some amount of freedom from the tyranny of cable companies. These products give any facility with one or more TVs a way to create and mix channels and sources and effectively make their own cable system. It can include cable TV channels (or not) and a host of other sources transformed into a channel lineup, without a box at every TV of course.
