Frequently asked questions

Is the antenna used for existing TV reception good enough for DTV?

Over‑the‑air digital TV uses the same channels as analog TV, so many existing antennas work, but you must check whether your local DTV stations are on VHF or UHF to determine if a different antenna is needed.

How difficult is it to receive DTV signals indoors?

Reception difficulty depends on the power of local DTV stations and your distance from the transmission tower; DTV receivers need less signal strength than analog and provide high‑quality images once the signal exceeds a threshold.

Can I connect my DTV set‑top receiver to my cable TV service?

No. Cable TV uses a different digital transmission method that is incompatible with broadcast DTV set‑top receivers, so an antenna is still required for OTA DTV.

What should I do if the TV shows no picture or sound?

Try another channel, press the TV/Video button, ensure the TV is plugged in, and check the antenna connections.
