Does a HD TV automatically make the picture look clear or does the station you are watching have to use HD?



Answer:
It only looks clearer if it's HD content - so yes, the station you're watching has to broadcast in HD, or you have to be watching very high quality source material (like DVDs). I have an HDTV, and I've found that standard definition television actually looks much WORSE on an HDTV. You can really see all the static, lines, graininess, and/or fuzziness (known as "artifacts") in the signal that you wouldn't notice on a regular TV.
yes
It has to be broadcast in HD too, that's why sky have seperate HD channels, to rip you off for more even money to have HD.
no the station has to be broadcast in a ATSC (HD) signal but you have to have a built in ATSC tuner! how to find out if it does just look in the owners manual it should tell you. if not you have to buy a separate set top box for it to recive in HD signals.
