40 station choices on direct cable vs Tivo

Time Warner Albany NY is my provider.
TW cable card installed and paired.
No tuner adapter installed.

Cable is split to the Tivo box and direct cable into the back of the tv.
I split it because I like to watch Fox news and TW filters it out of the basic 20 channel starter channel package.

Just did a list of my direct cable stations and (there could be a few dups stations on the list).
I counted 40 channels showing content.
When I do the same on Tivo its at their basic 20 count.
I tried an in house antenna but I get 40 channels by plugging the cable in with the basic starter package. Its the Tivo/cable card filtering out all those the other stations I get directly with cable plugged into the tv.

I had the basic roamio last week, but it cant do OTA "and" Cable at the same time so I returned it for the Plus.

Short of having to keep switching inputs I take it there is no way I can feed those 40 cable direct stations thru the Tivo?
I take its the TW cable card filtering out the rest of the channels as I'm only paying for their starter channels?

When the TW guy was pairing the card he said eventually those direct stations will be going away.

If I called them and got the tuner adapter tweaked and working (light blinks wont lock on signal) will this add some of those other stations that Im not getting thru the Tivo?

Thx
