It's not unusual. I think Fawn Grove, PA has two different cable companies too. Armstrong Communications and another one that escapes me but one has the XL, and the other has the 4000.

No, they only have Armstrong.. the XL serves Fawn Grove. Armstrong in Bel Air, MD has a 4000 but gets a TWC signal via QAM from Fawn Grove.

Its because they're two different cable providers. Each Star costs money, and it's all about which particular cable company wants to fork out the funds for the latest technology. It's very common.
