local channels only on cable

Q. I'm getting fed up with my horrible antenna reception and have been looking into a local channel only package with comcast. They want 18 dollars for it! It is only 9.99 in San Francisco (in in the suburbs). Is there anyway to get this price down? Or do they have a digital local channel only service?
Im in the concord area, I have a digital tv with a digital tuner and have a very large directional outdoor antenna and revcieve only 2 english stations both in analog and digital, and both are PBS stations and I have very little interest in those. So antenna is no longer an option, and 17.70 a month for local only is what comcast quoted me on their website.
its a uhf actually, and i have also tried a uhf/vhf model, and a vhf only model, and im positive that antenna is no longer an option, no one in my area uses antennas because they do not get signal here.

A. You don't say where you're located. In San Jose, I get Comcast Limited Basic for $14.50. It's pretty much just local channels plus DIscovery, WGN andmaybe a couple of shopping channels.

Have you tried the antenna sites to see what you can get? The new digital tuners are really good at working with weaker signals.

Try the sites and either get yourself an HDTV or a converter box to hook up to your analog TV. Most local stations are broadcasting in both analog and digital.
