HDTV Setup

HDTV (High Definition TV) is so cool, once you see it, you will never want to go back to regular TV. It is like the difference between listening to a weak radio station in the car that has a lot of static, and listening to a crystal-clear CD.

Watching Lost in HDTV, you can see the pores on the actors faces (luckily, there are some nice looking faces you don’t mind seeing close up) and the scenes of the ocean and jungle makes you feel like you are there in Hawaii with them (whoops, I mean some uncharted island) feeling the ocean breezes and tropical humidity.

We don’t watch any non-HD shows—it just isn’t the same. Conversely, there are some shows we watch just because they look gorgeous in HDTV, that we wouldn’t normally watch (like Las Vegas).

The kicker is that we don’t need to pay for cable to get HDTV; we just put on antenna on the roof and get all the local stations for free!

Now setting up an HDTV system is a little complicated, so here is some information on how to do it.
