							Troubleshooting5-3
Can I watch digital TV broadcasting with an ana-
logue TV?No.
The analogue TV cannot interpret digital signals. Therefore, a digital TV is 
required to watch digital TV broadcasting.
Can I use my present antenna to receive digital 
broadcasting? As for existing analogue TV, digital TV is designed so that digital broad-
casting signals are received via 
both indoor and outdoor antennas.
If signal reception is very good in your environment, you can watch digital 
broadcasts with your existing indoor ante nna. If not, it is better to install an 
outdoor antenna.
