Hey, everybody!
I finally got myself an actual BIG-screen TV! And it's HDTV with a built-in tuner! I am so psyched. I got a great deal on a Sony KDP-57XBR2 at Tweeter. I fell in love with the set, which they were feeding an HD signal on the floor and it blew me away!
It took a lot of convincing my wife to get it, but now it's done. It's being delivered tomorrow, Tuesday.
BUT . . . my wife does not want me to spend even more money on any other upgrades for the moment, and that includes any satellite upgrades to get HDTV programming through DISH network.
So my question is this: My TV has "All-format ATSC reception, decoder built in" and I understand that I should just be able to connect an HDTV antenna and get my local HDTV channels. Is this the case? If so, what is a good indoor HDTV antenna that I can use? Please let me know as I am and HDTV newbie trying to take maximum advantage of my new TV.
Thanks!
