I'm ready!

The old CRT TV is gone! The AM/FM CD player is gone, DVD player is gone!
Here's what I'd like to do: Jensen JWM6A Radio w/ CD/DVD & Blue Tooth. That would give us the radio, cd and dvd that would connect to the TV via HDMI, thus eliminating the need for a DVD player. Add a 32" smart TV with a digital tuner. We have ROKU in the S&B which we can take along. We have all the old speakers in the ceiling, which I may have to replace, but the wiring is there. My hearing is pretty bad, so want to either pipe the sound to all the speakers, or add a speaker bar. Have a 5 yr old GGDaughter full time, so need the DVD/CD. Don't know much about Blue Tooth, but figure I can learn down the road. Here's the rub! I see all these TV's advertised as ROKU ready etc., but I want to make sure they have the digital tuner, so we can utilize the roof mounted antenna. Don't want satellite. Guess what I better do is go to Best Buy and let the nerd point me toward the right TV, unless you guys can do that. Understand that I don't want to invest a lot of money, we only use the camper when the kid is out of school, and at 79, I probably won't be able to do this but a couple of years.

I very seriously doubt there is going to be even a single TV at the store, new, that doesn't have a digital tuner. Anything without that tuner would be called a "monitor" and would likely be found in the computer department.

Ditto what Robbie said. Walmart has cheap TVs but may not have the Radio you want. Were you going to get the Geeks to install it? Then you have to go to Best Buy.

I can install it

It's pretty confusing when you look at smart tvs. Roku ready etc. Although we have 3 tvs in the S&B, none of them are "smart". Because we will have to depend on wifi for a lot of things on the road, I think the "smart" would be the way to go. The radio will be purchased from whoever has the best price. Probably Amazon.
