Since it's the only HD channel yet available both OTA and on TWC in this market... is anyone able to see both and compare PQ?

Coinicidentally, I did this last night.
I had my 8000HD DVR tuned to 1811 and my OTA STB tuned to 17-3. By alternating between my HD1 and HD2 video inputs (both with RGB wire h/u, no DVI), I was able to compare.
My TV displays a black screen for about 1 second to go between the two video inputs, but I did not find a difference in the PQ. I don't have a 5.1 audio receiver, so I can't tell you about the difference in sound quality.
I also used the split screen function on my TV, where I can display two video images side-by-side, but each image is about 1/4 the size of the full screen. By putting the STB on one input and the 8000HD on the other (both tuned to WMHT-HD), I still did not notice a difference in PQ. The 8000HD image is about 2 seconds behind the OTA STB image because the DVR is contantly recording "live" TV and buffering 2 seconds.
