Should I buy a HomeRun

How can I find out what channels to expect from my CableCo (Charter) here in Central Massachusetts?
Do I have to buy a tuner to find out or is there another way?

If its worth your cash for local channels in HD then buy it. If your worried that all you will recieve is the locals then, I would purchase from a place with an easy return policy. I think the only real way to tell is do a channel scan with an HDTV.

I must say though, I purchased one a couple weeks after they hit the market and I dont think I had one issue with it since. My only complaint, when I purchased it, was how much work went into remapping the channels but thats not the fault of the HDHR. Great product.
