The TU-HDS20 multiple-format TV tuner is the perfect companion to DTV-compatible monitors like Panasonic's CT-34WX50. It receives and decodes all ATSC digital television formats (HDTV and SDTV) and can "upconvert" or "downconvert" signals to match the display rates of other digital-compatible TVs. Besides receiving all available analog (NTSC) and digital TV broadcasts from your local stations via a rooftop antenna (not included), this versatile tuner also gives you access to DIRECTV® and digital DIRECTV HD satellite programming (dish not included). The Advanced Program Guide merges your broadcast, cable and satellite channels into one easy-to-read display. This amazing tuner can even downconvert DTV shows for viewing on your current analog TV!

An optical digital output provides an easy one-jack connection for sending a Dolby Digital bitstream to your Dolby Digital receiver.
