Why does a tv with built in ntsc-atsc tuner do not pick up antenna signals?
On the settings or set up menu the tuner might not be set to receive off air signals or might be in the cable mode or it might be in the analog mode and you no longer have any analog stations to receive. Check to see if you are in the digital and antenna modes.
What is the function of a TV Tuner Box?
There are several scenarios for using an externa TV tuner box. The first is if the Tuner box has a coax output (for channel 3 or 4) and the TV can be tuned to that channel it can be used in place of the TVs internal tuner. An example is if the UHF tuner is out (channels 14-69) it can be used to receive those channels. If the TV tuners VHF (2-13) and UHF (14-69) are out and the TV has an AV input (yellow-white and or red) the TV tuner box can be used to receive the antenna channels. Similarly the TV tuner box can usually also be set to receive cable TV channels by changing a switch on the box or changing a setting in a setup screen on the TV tuner box. The second instance (and this will become more important as we near the FCC analog signal cutoff date of Feb 17, 2009). All analog signals will be cut off on that date. Older TVs that do not also have the ATSC or QAM tuners in them will not receive antenna or digital cable signals. Many TVs sold after around May 2006 to present have those tuners built in. Virtually all HDTVs sold after that time will have them. The TV tuner boxes are available now, but generally are in the $150.00 - $200.00 price range. As we get closer to January 2008 we will see more of these offered in the market and will likely be much less expensive $40.00 - $50.00 range. The Federal Government has a program for issuing $40.00 vouchers for such TV tuner boxes and each family will be alloted up to two. Many consumer electronics shops and stores will have the boxes and be able to redeem the vouchers.
Is sylvania tv set 6727de digital ready?
The Model 6626LCT is digital ready, you do not need to buy a digital box as there is one built inside the television. The Digital Tuner inside the TV is ATSC which means all you need is a Digital Ready Aerial. Roof-mounted or Set-top. All you need to worry about after that is if your aerial will give you a good picture.One more thing, it will take you a while to install the channels onto your tv as there are hundreds of channels including radio.I hope this answer has been of much use.

What is a built-in ntsc atsc qam digital tuner?
An NTSC/ATSC/QAM digital tuner, in the case of a TV, means that the TV supports the NTSC, ATSC, and QAM broadcast standards with its included tuner. NTSC is the old analog over-the-air (OTA) standard, ATSC is the newer digital over-the-air supporting High Definition video and Dolby Digital AC3 audio, and QAM means that the TV can decode digital cable signals without a set-top box. My internet research indicates that QAM will receive unencrypted broadcasts only. While encrypted channels varies by geography, it seems that most cable stations are encrypted while major networks are not. So, best I've determined, is that if you want more than just the major networks in high def you still need the set-top box or Cablecard.
When everything goes digital, how will I know if my television will work?
All televisions sold after March 1, 2007 include a digital tuner (by law) so you are good if you have bought a TV since then. If your television is labeled as �Integrated Digital Tuner,� �Digital Tuner Built-In,� �Digital Receiver,� �Digital Tuner,� �DTV,� �ATSC,� or �HDTV� then it has a built in device that will be fine after Feb. 17, 2009. If your television set is labeled as a �Digital Monitor� or �HDTV Monitor,� or as �Digital Ready� or �HDTV Ready,� this does not mean it actually contains a digital tuner. All this means is this TV is capable of handling the converter box. Thus, you still will likely need a separate set-top box which contains a digital tuner in order to view over-the-air digital programming.
