Connectivity Issues in Denver?
Anyone know if there is some issue in Denver? My model drops daily or multiple times per day. This is the only devices connected via coax and it is directly connected to the line coming into the house. Here is what I see in the logs:

Here are the signal strengths:

First. It's not necessary to block out the CMTS MAC addy. Only the CM MAC addy.
The stats at that snapshot in time were o/k. Ever notice them fluctuating widely ? Have you called in about this ? The reps have more diagnostic tools that can read more signal data than the modem can. What is the exact make and model number of the modem ?

I blanked out the MAC programatically...
No, the SNRs have been stable, haven't seen them fluctuate. But the disconnects vary wildly, sometimes 5 or more times per day and sometimes only once per day.
I have called, comcast doesn't want to send a tech without charging me $70....
The model is a CM1000, firmware version 7.01.01, hardware version 2.02
Other than me buying another modem, which would be extremely frustrating if that isn't it, comcast won't troubleshoot the line.

The signal stats are o/k but the error log entries indicate that something is going on. Perhaps there is noise ingress into the line(s) somewhere.
There are other signal stat figures that can't be read by the modem. They are the "Upstream Rx Power" (Upstream Receive Power Level), the "Upstream SNR Ch." (Upstream Signal To Noise Ratio), and the "Upstream ICFR" (In Channel Frequency Response). These are as equally important in diagnosing connectivity issues as are the modem's stats.
I'm going to escalate your issue to the Comcast corporate employees that are available to these boards. They will be able to poll the CMTS to see whether or not everything is in the green zone, see your node / cable plant and modem health, and also see a history plot for the modem. You should get a reply here in your topic. Good luck !
