High def antenna

[Webster Guy]

My dad bought a Sony 40 inch LCD TV. He has Time Warner Cable HD. In Rochester (Victor) channel 8 (CBS) and Fox 31 don't come in through HD. But I am under the impression he can get these channels in high def if he uses the HD antenna and not Time Warner.

 

Is this correct? And if so, does anyone recommend an antenna? These don't need to mounted outside or anything do they?

 

Thanks,

Jeff

if you can get a way with an indoor antenna - I have an extra, highly rated Silver Sensor for sale.

You can only get those channels in HD throuh an antenna if the HD up converter is built into your TV- otherwise, you will get them non-HD through an antenna.
