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

Yes you will watch regular analog programs, just make sure you have an digital antennae to plug into analog box for channel programming when you set it up for channel search (auto program of channels).

Dear friend. Yes you need cable. It is a very complicate installation because, that particular TV Turner was discontinue.

Can I hook up a regular converter box to this t.v. and get my local channels? I ordered this t.v. and I do not have cable or any paid services.

no, you need a cable converter and cable service. Do people still get cable?

Sorry to say, those are all cable or satellite channels and only available through those services. I would like to have them without a Directv Subscription myself. Or at least pick then alacart instead of through their packages.

Well, I can get several local TV stations without a cable box. I removed the Verizon box and it picks up about 20 stations. And they come in better without the box.

Essentially yes. Simple TV requires either a HTDV OTA Antenna (ATSC) or Cable (ClearQAM only).

You can get a digital attena to get free air channels ( without the digital Attena, TV won't be able to get all free channels in your area doing to signal interference) or get a cable/satelite box to get pay channels

no. actually you don't even need to have a tv...just have a dedicated cable line and cable box for the sling box...it will work perfectly

If your tv is not digital capable you would. But if it is a newer digital tv you would not. Very simple hook up. Just screw on coaxial cable and enjoy free air channel's

No, you just need a tv that have the coaxial connector, all of them have it

You do not need "Cable TV" to use the Roku. You will need an internet connection to stream movies and tv shows from online services like Netflix and Amazon

Yes it works without cable TV, but don't work if you have satellite connected on the coax, also you will need the kit ( adapter on both ends)

Yes you can, just download the EZcast app and follow the instructions on your tv.

Yes, you can. However, you have to buy the one that states that it will work with an antenna. Some of their models work only with cable.

Im not sure! But more than likely there is an external antenna that is made for these tvs! I have the ROKU all my tvs and this one I brought and put in my kitchen (with no cable) and I put the Roku 3 on it because I realy don't care for these cable companies so I just have the basics but with the Roku I watch my Netflix movies, Hulu Plus movies, Big Star Movies, and its cheaper than having cable and in your case, no cable! But Im sure with all the plug in parts in the back there has to be an antenna for it!!!!

No, only over the air free channels. The ones you are asking about come with a satellite or cable commitment.
