Hello,
I'm about to buy a Zenith C34W23, and already have Dishnetwork 500 system. But my box is messed up. It does't have output on the F connector, does on the std. RCA out, but only BW on the Svideo output. So I need to buy a new box.
The Zenith has component input and it's own hdtv tuner, so what kind of box do I need to get to replace the bad Dishnetwork box?
also, I get my local channels thru Dish. Two of them are already in HDTV and the rest should be by this time next year. I don't want to go back to the ugly outside antenna. Should I be able to get them in HDTV over the Dish or will I have to go back to the outside antenna?
Lastly, do I need anything extra to get Showtime HDTV? (I believe the dish is a Dual LNB type)
Also, am I wasting my money on getting the Zenith with the built in HDTV Turner if I'm going to have to buy a new receiver box anyway? Or do I need it with the antenna to get local channels in HDTV?
Thanks for the help. You have a very nice site here.
