I doubt that is totally accurate.

The only way you get the terrestrial channels is by havving passthrough capability. That is a hangover from the analogue cable systems. By default the Samsung STBs don't have that (at least mine doesn't).

You can of course plug in your terrestrial aerial to a splitter / combiner on the outlet RF from any STB. That will give you terrestrial TV channels as well as the Cable STB output via the co-axial lead. Quality though may not be very high.
