The analog Co-axial port on my TV is broken so what is my option is I want to go with this antenna hooked up to HDMI on the TV?

The analog Co-axil port on my TV is not broken...the TV works just fine. I currently have an antenna and just need to boost the signal. The signal boost I purchased does not work, but is receiving power from the outlet, but the booster itself does not work. I know this because I tested the power cord send with the amplifier with a mutlimeter. I would prefer to have another amplifier sent, not an antenna and I do not want to convert to HDMI because my TV has no available HDMI ports left.

Well you can get a replacement end at Radio Shack and fix it. It's just two wire connections to the coax port.

You connect this via the coax input on your TV. If that's broken, you won't be able to connect this or any other antenna. Your only choice is an external digital converter or cable box.

Yes, just get a connector with dual female ends and a length of coax cable to reach between the antenna and your tv.

The Antenna will still work, there is no difference between a digital and Analog antenna, but you will still need a digital tuner, either built into you tv, or a seperate convertor box.

Going along with the gang so far ... The antenna comes with an attached coaxial cable that plugs into your TV Antenna input jack and then you screw the clamp nut down tight. The Cable TV guys always use a wrench but I'm sure that is not required, here. Perhaps more to your point, if you have a flat-panel TV with a digital tuner then you are all set. If you don't have a digital tuner in your older flat-panel TV or you have the old NTSC "analog" TV then you need a converter box. If you have that older flat-panel TV then you need a converter box with an HDMI output.

your Setup box would need to have composite or HDMI ouput, this you just connect it to one of the inputs of the Receiver, if you still use the old type of analog cable were you receive only a coaxial connection you would need a TV or VCR or Cable turner to pass signal from coaxial to a composite output.

go to getmyelectronics.com under antennas look for the RF Antenna adapter (coax), it says it for small portable digital tv antenna adapter esp. RCA $13.99 I had same problem looking for one as I have the RCA digitalTV DHT235A 3.5" I'm ordering mine now.

Im not a subject matter expert but I would say yes, it will work with your analog/digital converter box. Here lies the potential why:http://www.ebay.com/gds/NO-SUCH-THING-AS-A-HDTV-ANTENNA/10000000003429040/g.html

You'll probably want to get a set-top box from your cable provider and then run HDMI from it (the box) to the receiver. If you'd rather not do that (and who wants another "rental" fee from the cable company?) then you'll have a few options, which I'll explain below... I'm not sure if this receiver does an "audio return channel" (ARC) over HDMI or not. ARC can bring audio from the cable (or other inputs) from the TV to the receiver over the HDMI cable. ARC is part of the HDMI 1.4 standard but I haven't read the manual for this product; not sure if it does it or not. If it does, you're golden. Just program the receiver to do it. Shouldn't take more than thirty seconds. If it doesn't support ARC, you'll need to leave the coaxial cable plugged into the TV and (in order of signal quality from best to worst) run an optical (Toslink) audio cable or an RCA digital "coaxial" audio cable or (*gasp*) an RCA ("red and white") analog cable from the TV to the receiver. The "coaxial" connector on the receiver refers to coaxial digital audio. It's likely that your TV will have a Toslink output on the back panel. That will give the highest quality signal. A 12-foot Belkin "Pure A/V" Toslink cable should cost less than $10 (plus shipping). Nearly every A/V cable I own was made by Belkin and I've had excellent results from them all. I hope this helps you to make sense of your connectivity problem. Best of luck!

There is a threaded nib on the antenna and there should be one on the TV (perhaps marked ANT IN). Use RG6 Coaxial cable and screw onto each nib. RG6 cable is rather common stuff. You can buy it at Amazon Coaxial Cable (50 Feet) with F-Male Connectors - Ultra Series by Mediabridge - Tri-Shielded UL CL2 In-Wall Rated RG6 Digital Audio / Video - Includes Removable EZ Grip Caps (Part# CJ50-6BF-N1 ) or Home Depot Lowes, even Walmart or Kmart.

Hi, the cable that comes with the antenna for attaching to your tv is 6ft long. It is very thin and likely too short for most setups so you will want to pickup a longer coax cable, especially if you are installing in an attic. Good luckJeff

My house is wired in coax and i broke the coax connection on the back of one of my TV's. But it also has a hdmi connection as well and have been trying to convert from coax to hdmi . I have been told there currently is no solution.

You can plug either an auxiliary cable or a hdmi cable. Make sure the hdmi cable is rated the same ad you tv (ie 1080i) . There's no such thing as an aux and hdmi cable combo . There totally different hook ups. I love my receiver.

What kind of converter box? As far as I know, there is no way to connect this TV to a regular antenna.

I didn't either, and that was a concern of mine before I bought the product. The antenna comes with a standard coaxial connection, just like a cable box does. It's a simple screw in to the TV. I recommend having a wall outlet nearby, since you have to power the antenna with either a usb (which is not an option for you) or a 110 volt outlet.

I purchased this cable hoping to resolve a similar problem. It didn't work because the coaxial connector is not like the ones we've used for decades to hook up TV's. The coaxial connector on this cable is "fat" and has 19 pins.

Antennas do not connect via HDMI. The antenna is picking up an analog multi-channel RF signal and the best choice of cable to carry that signal is coax. All antennas require a device that can receive the analog signal and turn that into a digital HDTV signal. Most current TV's or DVRs (such as TiVo) have this receiver built in. HDMI is used for connecting digital sources to each other.

What you need is a component to hdmi converter. It has a power supply and actively converts the signal. This is analog cable for devices that put out analog over hdmi. For what it is worth, I had an old xbox 360 and it ran 1080p over component to HDTV. I assume you are out of component ports?
