Help! confused with tuners and reception.

[vrankulj]

Hello,

I have recently bought a new television and would like to begin receiving HD signals.
The tv is a brand new SHARP 19" LCD tv (specifically, it is the LC-19SB14U).
My confusion is around whether or not I should require an HDTV tuner to pick up these channels.
I live in downtown Toronto and am wondering if just an antenna is all that I need to pick up the HD channels, or I need to buy an HDTV tuner along with an antenna to pick up the channels.

I understand that I will pick up a considerable amount of basic broadcast channels, but it is the HD channels that I am most confused and interested about.

I would appreciate any help.
I have scoured through the posts on this forum, but was unable to find the answers I am looking for. If there is a specific thread that I missed and should be looking at, let me know.

I would appreciate anything.

Thanks!

Tour TV set has an ATSC digital tuner which will tune HD TV. Connect your antenna to the set, go into the setup menu, and have the tuner scan for available digital stations. Toronto has a few, and you can usually pick up the Buffalo stations with an outdoor antenna.
