Digital TV does the panasonic dvd/vcr deck model #PV-D4752 have a tuner built into it and if so, is it a digital tuner? If it has a digital tuner, will that receive the new DTV broadcast signal without a converter box?

Hi Rick
I think you are painting yourself into a corner. So to Speak.
Why buy a SetTop Box to convert to an old VHS Tape when you can buy a Digital Recorder for probably the same price.
The modern way to Record video is to use a Hard Disk Drive Recorder rather than a VCR. They have a built in tuner and can record 2 stations at once and have a built in Electronic Program Guide. The EPG info is transmitted with the Digital TV transmission from the broadcaster.
I bought one 2 weeks ago for an old 85yo friend so he could record late night stuff and play back later. He still uses the VCR but only for old VHS Tape playback. It was a TEAC HDR9650TS Digital Video Recorder and I picked it up new for Aus$188.
Here are the unit features

   DVB-T Twin Digital Turners

This was my original reply until I saw the light.
So, Hopefully one of these will answer your queerie.

A digital TV picks up the new Digital Transmission and stores it in memory, then supplies the high definition to the input of your TV.
With a STB, once the digital broadcast signal is captured by the Set Top Box tuner, it is stored in memory and then it is converted to Video Format and comes out of the back connectors as a standard video & audio signal on the Red & White (Audio) & Yellow (Video) as a composite signal that can also be attached to an older VCR tape recorder.
If the STB output connectors have a Red White & Yellow RCA plugs then it is all ready to be picked up by an older TV or VCR.
Most set top boxes also have HDMI Output for high definition video & sound in the one cable, which attaches directly to the back of your TV (assuming it doesn't already have a tuner (STB) already built in).
HDMI is the state of the art cabling for modern devices. But probably not on the old VCR.
It will either use Component, Composite or SVideo cables. Match one of these cable standards up with your VCR.

5 digit code for the comcast red button silver remote is 21462 this pertains to Panasonic MODEL# PV-DF2704

If your using digital cable it will only record channel 3 or 4 depending on what your cable box is set to...In order for it to record different channels it needs a cable source plugged directly into it. You will only be able to record standard cable channels 1-125. If it's digital cable forget about... you can only record it with channel 3/4 a solution to this would be using a 2nd digital box.. "auto-programming" may be limited even with a 2nd cable box. If your only using standard cable 1-125... you can use the TV/VCR button it will switch between the tuner of the TV & VCR allowing you to record while you watch a different show... keep in mind this won't work for digital channels which if I'm not mistaken comcast has already converted all channels to digital even basic.

Is there a manufacture date on the back of it. The Commission's digital tuner rule specifies that as of March 1, 2007, all new TV sets must include digital tuners. I believe that rule follows when it comes to DVD players with built in tuners. If you bought this before that date then most likely its analog. I see in the owners manual has no listing for a digital tuner. So I would come to the assumption that its analog tuner. Hope this helps!!

they will figure it out

No,all CRT tvs can't get digital signal,all CRT require a digital converter box,if u don't have pay tv.Yes the converter box hook up it getting the digital signal from the box,not the Analog tv.

If you have a main aerial,plug it into the vcr then take a male to female fly lead out of the vcr into the tv.You then need to tune in the tv to the vcr and then tune in the vcr.

You can get a converter box for these for over the air programming but if you got satalite or cable you are FINE!!! it will work great

But they do not have digital tuners no.

Please do rate the answer thanks

I found a newer Comcast PDF file that shows a 5 digit number for tv with vcr ( no mention of DVD) but the code worked to turn on the tv and cable box together. My problem is it won't work the volume, yet
