Introducing the Digital TV (DTV)

Can this TV receive conventional analog broadcasts that are available today?

When is digital broadcasting being introduced?

How can I select digital channels?

Yes. This TV is designed to receive conventional analog broadcasts, cable TV, as well as all formats of digital broadcasts. Of course, you can also connect VCRs, DVD players, digital broadcast (satellite) receivers, and other audio/video components.

The transition from today’s analog broadcasting system to digital television will take time to complete. In the fall of 1998, some networks started to broadcast digital programs.

Digital channels are indicated by the use of a decimal or “dot” in the subchannel number (for example, “2.1”). This number appears when you press the CH +/- buttons or press the DISPLAY button. To select a subchannel directly, use the 0-9 buttons, button, and the ENTER button.

For example, to select subchannel 2.1, press:

2+ + 1+ ENTER

You can also select digital channels using an on-screen program guide. See page 32 for details.
