hehehe, fail, Anon!
The Weather Channel is only for the box where The Weather Channel is on, an the box immediately on top.
If you look closely, you will see most equipment goes in pair, one decoder and one encoder. Decoder takes whatever they get their stream from, and encoder sets that onto a cutie pie analog channel.
I cannot find a HD encoder, and don't think there are QAM multiplexers in the lot... so I'd guess it would not be a central broadcast hub, but only a local one.
Usually, the digital QAMs are multiplexed elsewhere, sent in bundles already compressed, and then only redistributed from that point.
Scientific Atlanta on the lower right reminds me of a control box for these digital channels, potentially controlling what the users can see or not... But I would have to see the full box to know.
