If your TV has a digital tuner built in you don't need a box. Connect the RF cable to the TV, select cable or QAM and run a scan. You will only get channels that your cable provider chose not to encrypt. If you need a QAM tuner http/www.amazon.com/Channel-Master-CM-7001-Antenna-Clear/dp/B0066O1DI2/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1447359667&sr=1-1&keywords=QAM+hd+tuner Upvote 0 Downvote
