Just got a fancy Sony 32" Flatscreen XBR HD TV for Xmas and don't want to double my cable bill when I can get free HD channels using an HD antenna. Currently getting about 30 hidef channels using a WINEGARD HDTVlp indoor antenna.

Problem is when I want to watch cable TV channels that are not available on the HD TV antenna. Both The Comcast Cable and HD antenna provide a signal using only a coax cable. The Sony TV only has one coax connector/tuner along with the standard HDMI and HD/DVD inputs.

Sony said that I can use an RF modulator with the HD antenna although this would significantly degrade the HD signal. I'm guessing that I can use an RF modulator with the Comcast coax cable as well. The main problem is that the TV only has one coax connector/tuner.

Is there a simple solution to this problem or am I simlpy wasting my time trying to find a solution?

Thanks,

Stefan
