Pioneer PDP 5010 FD/ ANTENNA B INPUT

[jimzilla]

I have a Pioneer PDP 5010 FD KURO and I am unable to find my manual for the TV. I have a question about the antenna inputs A and B.
I am currently using antenna A in for my satellite signal and my cable signal via a diplexer. I want to install a HD TV Antenna and I need to know if antenna B input will work as the input fo the HD TV Antenna. Thank you and best regards, jimzilla

The specs say that TV has Dual ATSC tuners, so you should be good to go.

Hello rbinck I hope you are doing well. Your advice did not work. I will attach the instructional page from the manual that came with my pioneer pdp 5010 fd (i found my mannual ) . I am trying to connect an HD TV antenna as I said before and I think the antenna – b will not work for the HD antenna. I am not familiar with antennas and combining different inputs. I don’t know if there are any a-b switches or special diplexers for combining multable signals into 1 port, thanks, jimzilla

I forget that some of the early HDTVs have that restriction. Why not attach the antenna to input A and the satellite/cable to input B.

And there are A-B switches, even some have remotes. Check out www.monoprice.com

Thanks for the tip. Do you know what the freq's so I can put the one that is the best match into ant-b port, thanks, jimzilla
