HDTV

Crisper, Clearer, Better

If you haven’t seen High Definition television yet, you should. But we have to warn you. Once you see it, you’ll have to have it. It packs more detail into the picture from more lines of resolution. It’s just like being there live.

HDTV Resolution

It’s All In The Resolution

Most analog sets (the kind most people still have) display up to 525 lines of horizontal resolution. By comparison, High Definition sets display up to 1080 lines of resolution.


How To Watch HD Channels

Just because you have a high definition television doesn’t mean you can see HD programs on every channel. First, you need an HD Receiver, which is available at Midcontinent. HD programming can only be seen on HD channels and for a listing of those channels, click here.

Midcontinent Tip

If you buy a TV that’s HD-capable, you’ll save money over an HDTV-ready set with its own decoder built in. As a Midcontinent HD customer, you’ll get a digital receiver that already has a HD decoder included. That way, you don’t have to worry about keeping up with technology as it changes.
