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.

Can you keep your phone and internet and drop your cable tv?
There are two ways that I know of that you can get your own internet connection without a phone line or cable TV.
1) With a public WiFi connection in a hot spot.
These are available in various locations inclduing pubs, cafes and certain phone boxes operated by BT in the UK provide WiFi access to passing compatible devices, however the coverage is limited and it is very expensive compared to...
2) Connecting a mobile phone or mobile modem to your computer.
The majority of these require a fixed term contract. Indeed, in the UK only Three offer a Pay As You Go option. The mobile network is much more available although unless you have access to a 3G signal it can be very slow. The disadvantages of this are that a monthly contract is required and if you are paying a fixed rate for a certain amount of bandwidth followed by a more expensive per megabyte rate you need to watch what you're downloading. If you can find a Pay As You Go operator with a reasonable unlimited broadband rate and can find a USB modem SIM-free then it can be very cost-effective with a one-off payment with only the charges for the bandwidth you use at a much cheaper rate than public WiFi hotspots.
3) WiMax & Satellite
There are also other wireless solutions available that do not require a mobile phone. Clear.com offers limited Wimax coverage in several US cities and satellite internet providers can give you service in remote areas.
Other than that you maybe able to find public internet terminals where you are, but bear in mind that this is not your internet connection and will be very likely blocked or filtered, especially in a public library.
Also, while this information relates particularly to the UK as this is where the contributor is from, you may be able to find similar options in your country, check for WiFi coverage and with your local mobile operators.

Can you watch standard definition on an HDTV?
Standard definition signals will always remain standard definition. However, when used on HD televisions, the extra resolution of the television means that the signal will be displayed at its best. Compared to older analog televisions, you are likely to see an improvement in clarity, detail and color.
Don't expect SD signals to become HD.
Why Do televisions use magnets?
In a cathode-ray tube (CRT), a beam of electrons is used to light up the phosphors on the screen. The direction of the beam is controlled by two electromagnets. One sweeps the beam horizontally while the other steps it down vertically.

Why does the sound on some cable channels go in and out?
This depends on how you receive these channels that this happens on.
If you receive them via the tuner in the TV: 1. It may be the channel from the broadcasters, or cable provider. 2. It may be the tv tuner going out/drifting.
If you receive them via a Settop Box STB (cable converter): 1. If you are using HDMI it is likely that the communication between the STB and TV via HDMI is faulty, or version mismatched 1.2 to 1.3a (some TV manufacturers have a firmware/software patch that you can use to correct this). 2. If you have a STB that has Dolby digital setting, make sure it is turned off.

Do you need to have cable TV to get cable internet?
In one word � yes. Most cable companies offer high-speed internet access through cable. You can avail of these services by asking your cable company if they provide them and then subscribing for them.
Here is how you can get internet through cable television; and also its advantages.
Internet through cable (sometimes called "cablenet") is a high speed service that is directly delivered to your computers via cables and there is no need for a phone line and connection. It is available 24 hours and 7 days a week for a flat monthly rate so you can save a lot on your telephone bill, depending on your current internet set-up.
Requirements: To access internet through cable you need to have a computer with a minimum memory of 16 MB and a windows 95 operating system or higher. If you use a Macintosh then you need an 8.0 system or higher. Your computer needs to have a Network Interface card (NIC) or a Universal Serial Bus (USB). If you have neither, the cable company can install it for you.
Benefits: Cable internet gives you very fast services and you can download Web pages in a matter of seconds. E-mail can be viewed in a jiffy, and downloading files which takes minutes through a dial-up, can be done in seconds through cable internet. Essentially all services through cable internet can be up to 30 times faster than a regular dial-up service. Most cable internet packages also include an e-mail address and some megabytes of personal web space.
You will also need a cable modem, which is generally supplied by the cable company. This is the device which allows you to access data and information when you are using cable internet. Internet through cable is not possible without a cable modem. A cable modem usually has two connections; one to the wall outlet, and one to your computer. Cable modems are generally external devices, but you can get a few that are built-in into your computer. The cable company usually provides you with a cable modem but you can use your own if you have one, provided it is compatible to the internet system.
Dual Use: cable companies use separate channels for video and data services, so you can use your computer and watch television at the same time without being restricted to just one activity.
Yeah. As long as they want to provide it, they can; they have the technology. I just got hooked up last week. plus they are the cheapest provider in the country. The Shadester.
Dismantle it. Wash the rubber key membrance with soap and water, gently. The delicate part, is the conductive rubber pads underside of each button.
Do not use switch cleaners or solvents, they will remove the conductive carbon from the black pads.
Wipe the contact surfaces on the circuit board with a damp cloth. Some remotes use carbon tracks on the circuit board, these are delicate and painted on.
Dry the parts carefully with a paper towel.
The rubber contacts may be rejuvenated by rubbing a 2B pencil on them.
