Do the majority of HD TVs no longer have a coax connector ? If not, how can I locate it ?

Asked by Buttonstc (27605) October 23rd, 2011 from iPhone

I recently bought a used HD (720) LCD 32” TV in very good condition.

It was set up here in the living room with the Composite (R, Y and White) connectors to show it was in working order.

I thought that’s what was in the previous analog TV in my room because that’s what the installer said he was doing.

But it turns out to be a coax at the end going into the TV. apparently this TV does not appear to have a coax output.

All of them are smooth with no grooves the way a coax connector normally has. Or am I overlooking something.

I was on the phone for abput an hour with a very nice helpful Tech guy from DirecTv trying to talk me through how to connect this thing. After peering at the back with a flashlight the whole time, it looks as if there is no coax.

So, am I crazy or what am I missing. Are they no longer putting coax on HDs because they’re presuming the HDMI will do the job or what?

HDMI is not an option for this TV because the cable box only has one HDMI out rather than two and that’s being used for the projector.

The brand name is Olevia (purchased at Sears) in case anybody else here has one.

Hopefully all you really smart techies can help me out here. Thanks.
