Connecting a cable converter box
This television has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable
channels without using a cable company supplied converter box. Some
cable companies offer Opremium pay channels� in which the signal is
scrambled. Descrambling these signals for normal viewing requires the
use of a descrambler device, which is generally provided by the cable
company.
