New member Username: Ssamaan1Bartlett, IL USA Post Number: 1 Registered: Nov-04 | Hello, I recently bought a 46" Toshiba Widescreen HDTV Monitor same as http://www.hometheatermag.com/directviewandplasmatvs/1203toshiba/ Now, I only have basic Comcast hook up (no digital). I do not plan on getting HDTV and/or digital cable for another couple of months. Why did I buy the TV then? Lets just say I got a great deal. Anyways, the analog signal I get now is great! My question is, are there any ways I can get an improved analog signal to get the best picture once I set up my TV? Such as buying better cables? Thanks in advance! Steve |

Check-out http://www.antennaweb.org for a list of local stations and what kind of antenna you may need. If you're close, you can get by with a small Zenith Silver-Sensor set-top antenna. If you're far away with a lot of trees/buildings/etc you'll need a larger antenna. I use a Channel-Master Stealth in my attic. HDTV O-T-A is great. 2: Some cables are more hype than substance. Unless you're running over 10' any GOOD quality cable will do. What you need to do is use the best interface that your devices support. COMPONENT > S-Video > Composite > coax.
