An ATSC tuner is sold in external set-top box. It’s relatively easy to connect one to your HD-ready set. It will enable you to see digital programming in HD or SD, as well as analog programming, that’s broadcast over-the-air. They currently sell for a few hundred dollars. You will also need an antenna. See FAQ A-4 for more details. The government has required that an ATSC tuner be built in to new TV sets sold after March 1, 2006. This applies to all sizes of TVs. Alternatively, you could add an HD cable box or HD satellite box to get digital and HD channels. Check your owner’s manual for details on connecting the cables.
