The explanation in the US is -
Most older, non-digital tv's have tuners that tuned to old tv stations. If you didn't have cable and wanted to get over the air tv, you had to buy a digital tuner. The antenna plugs into the tuner, which plugs into the tv. The tv sees the tuner as an input device (so I change channels on the tuner, not the tv now).
