“connect to cable digital channels without cable box My cable company has digital tv; however, I don't use a cable box and connect directly with my larger Insignias to the cable connection. I just returned another smaller (different brand) tv which had only the ATSC tuner and which wouldn't pick up the cable channels. Will this set pick up cable channels without the box?”

Yes, no cable box is needed. However, one I purchased had a defective tuner and would not display the channels selected. BestBuy refused a refund even though the TV was obviously defective. I also have the same TV that I bought in August 2012 which is great, so they have apparently change manufacturer, as the one I just returned had much poorer picture and sound in addition to a faulty tuner.
