• What is Digital Television?
Digital television (DTV) is a new way of transmitting high quality video and audio to your TV set. Using DTV, broadcasters can transmit high definition TV (HDTV) images, Dolby digital surround audio, and new services such as multicasting (transmitting more than one program on the same TV channel) and datacasting. Several of these services can be combined into a single digital broadcast.
Digital Television Services
• Digital Picture Quality
DTV programs are transmitted in two different formats. The first is Standard Definition Television (SDTV) and the second is High Definition Television (HDTV).
• SDTV program formats include 480-line interlaced (480i) and 480-line progressive (480p) video.
480i programs are essentially a digital version of our current analog TV programs, while the 480p format offers improved image detail over 480i. Some 480p programs are broadcast in widescreen and are comparable to progressive-scan DVD movies in image quality.
• HDTV program formats include 1080-line interlaced (1080i) and 720-line progressive (720p).
Both HDTV formats are always broadcast in widescreen, and offer much higher picture quality than SDTV.
• Dolby Surround Sound
With DTV, you can listen to a variety of Dolby digital audio formats from Dolby Surround 2.0 to Dolby Digital 5.1 surround, using your home audio system. Many HDTV programs are now broadcast with DD 5.1 soundtracks.

Q&A
1. Is the antenna I use for existing TV reception good enough for DTV?
Over-the-air (OTA) digital TV broadcasting uses the same channels as analog TV and works well with many existing TV antennas. However, DTV broadcast channel assignments are different than analog channels. You should find out whether your local DTV broadcasts are on VHF (channels 2-13) or UHF (channels 14-69) to see if you need a different antenna.
If your DTV channels are on UHF and you already get good UHF reception, your present antenna may work fine. The same holds true for VHF DTV reception. Note that in some markets, both VHF and UHF channels are used for DTV broadcasts.
You can find out the latest DTV channel assignments for your area by browsing selected Internet web sites such as www.titantv.com, www.10000watts.com, and www.fcc.gov.
2. How difficult is it to receive DTV signals indoors?
This depends on whether your local DTV stations are running full power or not and how close your location is to the transmission tower. DTV receivers do not require as much signal as analog TV receivers to produce high-quality images and sound.
Once the DTV signal level exceeds a certain threshold at the receiver, the digital video and audio data is decoded at the same quality it was originally encoded for broadcast. This is a big advantage for DTV over analog TV - there is no noise, ghosting, static, or scratchy audio.
3. How can I connect an antenna in my townhouse, co-operative apartment, condominium, or apartment?
The Federal Communications Commission’s OTARD Rule (part of the Telecommunications Act of
1996) allows residents of condominiums, townhouse, or members of neighborhood associations to put up outside antennas for reception of broadcast TV signals as long as those antennas are not located in common areas and are no more than 12’ in height.
Residents of rental units (apartments, etc.) are not covered by the OTARD rules and will have to use indoor antennas to receive DTV broadcasts. It is possible that the landlord of an apartment complex can provide broadcast DTV signals via a master TV antenna system to each apartment.
4. Can I connect my DTV set-top receiver to my cable TV service?
Cable TV systems use a different method for transmitting digital TV programs that is currently incompatible with broadcast DTV set-top receivers. So you will still need to use an outdoor or indoor antenna to receive OTA broadcast DTV programs.
The good news is that you won’t have to pay a monthly or per-program charge to watch OTA DTV and HDTV programs. They’re free, unlike subscription satellite TV or premium cable TV. All you need is an antenna and a DTV set-top receiver to enjoy clear, sharp widescreen images and high-quality audio.

Cable with a Cable Box that Descrambles Some (But Not All) Channels
To complete this connection you will need a two-way splitter, an RF (A/B) switch, and four coaxial cables (which you can buy from your Samsung dealer or any electronics store).
Find and disconnect the cable that is connected to
1
the ANTENNA IN terminal of your Splitter. This terminal might be labeled “ANT IN”, “VHF IN” or simply, “IN”. Connect this cable to a two-way splitter.
Connect a coaxial cable between an OUT terminal

terminal of the RF (A/B) switch and the ANT 1 IN (CABLE) on the TV.
After you’ve made this connection, set the A/B switch to the “A” position for normal viewing. Set the A/B switch to the “B” position to view scrambled channels. (When you set the A/B switch to “B”, you will need to tune your Set-Top Box to the Cable box's output channel, which is usually channel 3 or 4.)

Memorizing Channels

Your TV can memorize and store all of the available channels for both “off-air” (antenna) and cable channels. After the available channels are memorized, use the CH and CH buttons to scan through the channels. This eliminates the need to change channels by entering the channel digits. There are three steps for memorizing channels: selecting a broadcast source, memorizing the channels (automatic).
Selecting the Video Signal Source
Before your television can begin memorizing the available channels, you must specify the type of signal source that is connected to the TV (i.e., an antenna or cable system).
Press the MENU button. Press the œ or √ button to select

Checking the Digital-Signal Strength

Digital
Unlike analog channels, which can vary in reception quality from “snowy” to clear, digital (HDTV) channels have either perfect reception quality or you will not receive them at all. So, unlike analog channels, you cannot fine tune a digital channel. You can, however, adjust your antenna to improve the reception of available digital channels.
Press the MENU button. Press the œ or √ button to select
1
“Channel”, then press the ENTER button.
Press the … or † button to select “Signal Strength”, then press the
2
ENTER button.
If the signal strength meter indicates that the signal is weak, physically adjust your antenna to increase the signal strength. Continue to adjust the antenna until you find the best position with the strongest signal.
