In Reply to: Re: Need advice on new LCD/ which is better for reg.cable not HD? posted by Luminator on November 27, 2006 at 11:27:49:
receiving analog cable. Does this mean your parents can tune-in the HD channels without "upgrading" to "digital" cable?I'm strongly considering the 46" version of the same Sony.
Thanks,

Follow Ups:
In San Francisco, Comcast provides analog cable. With old TV tuners, you'd only receive one broadcast per channel. But with the Sony's tuner, it can receive any subchannel. For example, if you press "2," KTVU's regular broadcast will appear. But if you press 2.1," the HD broadcast will appear. Similarly, channel 7 has several subchannels, one of which is a weather channel.Higher up, there are some music channels, as well. I had read about these subchannels, but never knew what they were, until I hooked up the Sony TV at my parents' place.
Hmmm, I just realized that I haven't put up any pictures of my parents' TV on my xanga blog. Gotta work on that.

Yes, even without a cable box, you can get many many channels and subchannels if your TV has a digital tuner. I can get all my local digital and HD channels, as well as about 30-40 music channels and a *random* VOD (whatever my neighbors watch?) all without the box. I do NOT get premium channels.
