I recently bought a new Samsung LCD TV and would like to know the best way to connect an Over-The-Air antenna to receive my local channels in HD?
Can I use the regular coax cable or do I need to look for an antenna with an alternative connection for the best picture quality?

Im not planning to subscribe anytime soon so lets go with free channels. I read the hdtv with Qam can pick up to 20-25 free hd channels but couldnt find anyone saying how many hd channel can the ATSC get without the Qam. The Questions are:

1) How many hd channel can the hdtv pick up without Qam?

2) Can the Qam help pick up more free channels(non-hd) compare to using the ATSC(digital tuner) alone?

My situation is wether to get an hdtv with Qam or not that cost $150 more…and depending on what shows/movies appear on the hdtv to make the $150 worthwhile. I searched through google without any luck, any help is greatly appreciated’
