well my twc system was upgraded to 860MHz motorola line gear from 750 motorola/GI(mostly installed by TCI in 1997) last year and it cost millions for a metro of 40 cities in 4 system clusters.

but now we have 51 HD and all Digital simulcast. before we had 20HD and partial Digital simulcast.

That's the only real benefit you get from going to 860, is that you can still dish out a half decent HD lineup and not piss off people by taking away their analogs.

I would love to have an 860 MHz system, but reality tells me that analog reclamation is more cost effective.
