In my high takeup area I am still waiting these new channels seph

I wish I could count the houses per node here but what I do know is there is lots of house conversions to flats/bedsits, and converted factories to flats. So the node density is likely much higher than it was when cable originally came to town.

I think rather than adding channels VM really need to reduce the densities, if it means new cabinets or deeper fiber then so be it. Also we need QAM64 upstream channels and upstream bonding. Comcast are doing it fine.
