1. A source of HDTV programming: Broadcast, Satellite, or Cable Before making any decision on whether to buy an HDTV of any type, check with your local programming sources to see if HDTV service is available in your area. Current choices are SKY or Virgin Media. 2. An HD-antenna (If your HDTV has a built-in HDTV Tuner), HD-satellite box, or HD--cable box, or HD-Set-top box. Determining your HDTV programming sources basically determines what you need to receive HDTV signals. If local stations in your area broadcast HDTV signals over-the-air, but they are not passed along through your local cable system or satellite provider, then you will have purchase a HDTV-antenna to receive the signals. The specifics of your location in relation to the TV transmitter will determine whether an indoor or outdoor antenna is appropriate. |
