It does not get HD. You can use your HD receiver but it is in regular picture. It was very easy to install and I am thinking about putting it on my camper. I use the one I have on my ice fishing house and it works great!

Yes it will work with an hd reciever but will only give you standard tv not high definition.

Hi, It does not have a built in HD antenna, but you can get one very cheap anywhere for about 20$.Thats what I am doing as well.

It will receive cable signals without the box. The tuner will work excellent on the HD channels and okay on the others

HD receiver and HD subscription from Directv, does work. The real problem with most systems is the antenna is not able to be connected to a strong signal. Amplifires may help, but is only a poor substitute for a good signal.

You need and HD source. OTA antenna if you can pick up locals, sat., or cable box with HDMI or component outputs.

Reasonably easy, depending on your TV. I find it (the HDMI control TV-to-Receiver) to be a bit clunky, but it CAN work.

Some channels are HD, most are not. HD ones are pretty good. Non hd Quality is not terrible.

I have an HD cable box and notice no difference when changing channels between HD and regular stations. I hopes that answers your question.

I do not think the dish will make any difference. You need to have a HD capable TV. Easy to mount, especially if the roof already carries terrestrial aerial. Cheers

thank you for your response- I found a discussion on yahoo yesterday that explained the antenna pretty well- basically that the so called "HD antenna the retailers are selling is hype and not really needed .

Yes, for the channels that air HD content you will see it in HD on your TV. Just make sure to connect the box to your TV via an HDMI cable to get the best picture.

You need a 30" satellite Antenna for FTA and it will get HD channels. This is currently unavailable and we do not have an ETA for new inventory.

Yes it will. The receiver is the main part you need to bring in the HD signals.

I dont think so. A friend of mine purchased one since me and it worked fine out of the box for FTA. We live in the Caribbean as well. So I think you should be fine. We have not tested HD channels so I cannot comment on that.EWP

I have the box, and the info of the channel DOES show its broadcast on 1080 for the channels that are listed as HD in the channel guide. I can tell which are HD as the aspect ratio changes on those channels. The reception is awesome. I have a 12yo tv that I've hooked up the box via AV cables and the signal rivals what I'm getting from FiOS.

Yes it is very easy, I purchased this for that reason. I move the TV from inside to outside when camping or wanting to watch sports outside. Weel made and worth the investment.
