Can't do over the air with any good picture quality.....cable or satellite are the options. Cheapest cable package does not include MSNBC, or CNN but does include Fox. All local channels are included plus a lot of junk.

My sets do have QAM tuners which the cable companies hate and will pretend to know nothing about.. By just connecting the cable directly to the set I can get loads (more than 80-100) including many HD channels. It is tough to get a program listing however and the channel numbers are more complex than regular cable, eg channel 4 is 4-1 and then there are other stations on 4-2,4-3, 4-4..... Ditto for ch. 7 and all the regular numbers...To get a more complete list requires patience or doing an auto channel search. At the moment I have 3 cable boxes since the cable company has a one year promo going. At the end of the year I will keep one box and rely on the QAM tuners for the less important sets...
