How can I hook up a coaxial antenna to an HDTV plasma?

Question

I have an industrial HDTV TH-42PH9UK that has RCA and HDMI connections. I want to give up my time warner cable and use the regular antenna to get HD signal, however my plasma has no coaxial inputs. How can I connect the antenna to my HD and get HD signal? Is there a converter or something that I can use? I do not know if my TH-42PH9UK has an ATSC tuner inside...

Thank you for your help.

What you have is a monitor (video display).  It has no tuner or speakers, it just displays video.  Nothing more.

If you wish to connect an antenna for Over The Air reception, you will need an external tuner like Samsung's DTB-H260F external ATSC tuner or similar.  You could also connect a satellite receiver or cable box to the display.

The spec sheet didn't say the display had speakers so, you will need a Home Theater amplifier and speakers for whatever solution you choose.

I hope this helps.
