Depending on your situation - it may still be possible to get the old 'analogue' set of channels from UPC.
In my (rented) house - we have digital UPC with DVR box in the living room - I have a TV in the bedroom which had been wired in for UPC - however I haven't got a digibox - but it is still receiving the same 17 channels I used to receive when I was on standard analogue UPC in a different property (RTE1&2, BBC1&2, ITV, Sky1 etc). It might be no harm to test an extension wire from the UPC connection and tune in the stations on a TV capable of analogue signals. UPC dont seem to have turned off the transmission of the signal in this format.
