LCD tv shopping help?

this is the incorrect part.

With traditional TV it is sometimes possible to get TV channels without plugging in an antenna.

that’s what you’re doing with this TV, only with the high def tuner instead of an analog tuner.

many people do need to plug an high def antenna into their hi-def tuner to get channels to come in.

so having a high def tuner does not mean you don’t need an antenna
