I have a cable box that gives me additional channels. Will I still need my cable box with this TV?

Yes, it functions as a normal TV, the only thing is that it has built in apps, so you don't need an outside source. ie. roku or blu-ray player.

You will need a M -card. It replaces your cable box for unscrambling the cable signal. You need to get it from your cable company.

Yes the channel changes on both sides, I got another cable box just to set up a new slingbox. It is worth it.

I have Time Warner Cable internet and TV. This modem is only for internet access. There is a separate cable box for the TV although I can get nearly 100 channels without the TV cable box. With the TV cable box is something more than 1,000 channels (of which I use about a dozen.) But, the TV cable box also provides a DVR and the on screen guide. I would check with Xfinity for their approved list of cable modems. Time Warner Cable has such a list which this one is on. Hope this helps!

yes. BUT, you will only be able to watch what the SENDING tv is on.( one tv must be connected to the cable company box)

You will not have any trouble hooking up the TV but unless the cable box is HD and you are subscribing to HD channels you will not see those channels in HD. The TV supports HDMI and component inputs for HD and coax and component in for standard definition. Good luck! This is a great TV!

Hi, yes you will need an antenna to get local channels. If you don't need local channels, then "no". We do have ports that you can add third party devices to television (dvd/directv).

If your problem with the cable box channels is signal degradation, then yes. If the problem isn't related to weak signal strength, then no.

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

i have 6 tv's, i will need a unit for each. "Question" do I have to pay extra for more than one unit?

Yes is you have two HDMI ports on your TV. One I attach the Roku and the other an over air (digital) TV antenna which you can buy from Amazon.com for less than $11 and it works great. I do not know about watching cable stations without a cable box because I do not have cable. What you can do is, unplug the over the air TV antenna from the HDMI port and connect your computer (if it has an HDMI port) and watch the programs on your big TV screen.

If you have cable you shouldn't need this box. This is for a regular antenna to convert digital signal back to analog on the older tv so you can view

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

No, you don't need cable. To find out what channels will be available to you go to this website and enter your address https://www.tvfool.com/?option=com_wrapper&Itemid;=29 Each digital channel, for example ch 4, may have several sub-channels (4-1, 4-2, etc) which usually have different programing. In our area, we receive somewhere around 50 different broadcasted channels over the air. Some we have opted out of because of the content, some are in Spanish and I am trying to learn Spanish so we opt in on those. Hope this helps

That would transmit an outgoing signal from your tv set (if it even has OUT ports) to be received by your cable box. Can't imagine why you would do that. Plugging it into the OUT on your cable box and receiving it at the TV will allow you to eliminate the wires from the cable box to the tv and allow you to keep them a greater distance apart, or perhaps even in different rooms.

No you don't need a box. This antenna is all you need. When you program the TV to search for channels, set it on AIR and it will do the trick.
