this is a full 1080 HD picture that I'm
getting through my cable for free and I
do not have a cable subscription so I'm
gonna tell you this little secret that
most people don't understand and you can
do this yourself so now again the
distinction is if you do not have a
cable TV subscription but you do have
internet which I do so I have no cable
box but I do have a modem and a router
for the internet signal and that's all I
have in my house is internet and Wi-Fi
and I'll show you what to do so take
your cable where it comes out of the
wall and what you're going to want to do
is get a splitter like this that's
what's the signal into to now what you
do is so it comes out of the wall and
into the splitter and now you're going
to take one which goes to your internet
which will be this goes to your modem
and your wireless router which projects
the Wi-Fi through your house the other
one you want get another short cable and
plug that directly into the back of your
TV as if you would if you had a cable
subscription so basically what you're
doing is creating a plug straight from
the wall into the back of your TV with
nothing in between well even if you have
internet and no cable the cable
subscribers I'm sorry the cable company
it still sends out the HD signals for
all the over-the-air channels now to be
clear this is not you're not going to
get ESPN and Fox News and actual cable
channels but you will get a lot of the
over-the-air channels like NBC all the
big networks and all the residual
networks that you would get over an
antenna so this is an alternative to
having an antenna so what you want to do
then then go to your TV's menu and go to
the channels and select your input as
not antenna but cable even though you
don't have a cable subscription you want
that input to be recognized
and then go down to your auto program if
you have that and run the auto program
if this is be the same procedure as if
you had an antenna hooked up an external
antenna and then once it goes through
that you will see all these channels
will come through on your cable and
you'll be able to watch them it's a
really cool secret that most people
don't know is out there so if your
content watching all the over-the-air
things with an antenna you can quit
monkeying around with the antenna and
just take it straight out of your cable
now if you have no internet subscription
and no cable subscription I don't think
this will work I think you still have to
have at least an internet subscription
but give it a try and see what helps and
comment if you find anything different
good luck
