Mr. Belding Playmaker

don't even have to purchase an antenna. He said now digital TV's have an antenna built in and so you don't have to buy one and hook it up to your TV. Is that true?

I suppose it's possible but I've also never heard of it. Pretty unlikely that

All TVs have built in tuners but only ones in the last 5 or so years have

Unfortunately the Vizio I just bought doesn't have a tuner.

That's lame. But what you got is a "display" not a TV

Yeah, but your antenna could be a metal clothes hanger . . .
