How do I get my HDTV to receive digital tv?

I have a Sony Bravia HDTV. It has a built in tuner already installed. How do i get my HDTV to recieve digital TV? I have a antenna on the roof. All i could see is static. What should i do?

Make sure your outdoor antenna is connected to the UHF or AIR antenna connection and NOT the CABLE connection.

Go into your menu, look for the CHANNELS icon…select it

NOW make sure your tuner is setup for AIR or UHF and NOT CABLE.
If you have a Cable ON/OFF mode turn it OFF.

NOW….Autoprogram it, and when finished make sure your Antenna button on the remote control is set for AIR and NOT CABLE

Too many buttons eh?

    You have to feed that tuner still. So with the tuner there you don’t need a cable/satellite box. But you would still at least need a set top antennae (rabbit ears) essentially. Or something being run from the roof that would provide a coaxial feed.
