From my limited technical knowledge I think what Papa Smurf was saying is correct, he was talking about the actual carrier frequency's for the cable modem locks onto, it's a set value. The signals Paul H is talking about are more along the lines of SnR and Power levels, these ones can have adverse effect on signal quality if wrong, whereas if a modem is on the wrong frequency for the network, it wouldn't work full stop.
Of course I could be wrong, here, it has happened once or twice in the past...
