Is this unit cable-ready? No mention of a QAM tuner.

Sorry, I looked and found out that I was wrong. This one only has the connection for QAM tuner.
995168
Yes, it has an ATSC (QAM) tuner so it can tune in ClearQAM channels. Since it cannot take a CableCARD though, it cannot tune encrypted channels.

Yes, this unit has a QAM tuner but you can not view scrambled channels. Basically you will receive local channels, shopping channels and some channels such as RT the Russian propaganda channel.

I don't know what you really mean cable ready. This is a smart TV. It has a RJ45 input for Internet or for wireless dongle. There are inputs for cable tv and other equipments.

never heard of a QAM tuner, but we have our TV hooked up with Verizon and the picture is great!

Yes, there is a cable input and selection on the input menu. In my case, my cable receiver box connects to this cable input.

I use this for my cable feed and can receive only qam channels, which is the network channels and very few cable channels.

Yes, I'm quite sure it does. But to be certain, if you really must have the QAM tuner, I would recommend you send a query to Vizio support people because the users' manual does not state it one way or the other. Good luck.

I purchased the Magnavox HDD 535H and it does have a Qam tuner.Station numbers are unique, not as listed by my provider WOW.

Hi there. We returned this product as it was not going to work for us. We went ahead and purchased a new modem directly from Qwest so it would be compatible with their upgraded service. Take Care

If they are giving you a Cable box fine. But it does not have a QAM Tuner built in, unless they provide you with an external QAM Tuner.

It will only work with channels that are not encrypted (a.k.a. clear QAM channels). Most paid channels are encrypted and thus will not work with this tuner.

I can tell you that it has an ATSC tuner. I am able to take OTA digital channels broadcast by local television stations and output to HDMI (video and audio). I do not have a QAM signal to test on.

Hi there. I just received the older version of this. I called Amazon and asked if they had the new version with Clear-QAM. They replied that they did, and all I had to do was return the one I received. I'll let you know if I get the newer hardware revision as soon as it shows up. JohnUpdate: I just received an email from Amazon saying they don't have the new version in stock.

This iView 3500STB works in Kentucky on Time Warner Cable. It will tune the unscrambled channels. It gets the numbers wrong but the channels are there. You say your TV could find unscrambled QAM channels so this iView set top box should do the same. If it's not working, I'd have to guess that it is a defective unit providing you have chosen "cable" in the menu for it's channel search.

It requires a cable/satellite box for viewing over the air content. There is no built in tuner.

Yes, you need a QAM tuner. If you have acable box you need at least a NTSC tuner for channel 3 or 4. For basic cable right out of the wall, you will need a QAM tuner. Does this TV have a QAM tuner?

I do not know what a QAM tuner is . My oCOSMO TV works beautifully . Upon arrival we plugged it in and have been using it since. No special equipment needed.

You can connect the cable antenna directly to this tuner and it will receive the QAM channels that your cable company puts on the cable. Some do and some don't. Ours does. So do not need to rent a box from the cable company. Only is any good if your cable company has open QAM
