I am from Australia and I got a Home Theater receiver from the United States. I have been thinking about it for a while and thought it would be plausible for it to play Australian signals.
Could I hook an Australian TV tuner into it and have it work?
I’m a bit of a noob here.

No, NTSC and PAL signals are not compatable. The receiver will not work.
I have an ONKYO receiver from the states too. I currently live in England. You will need something to pick up the signal at one end, and something to interpret them at the end, but as long as nothing in between is processing the signal–no problems.
For example, I have sky digital (British satelite) going through my receiver to a multi-system (Pal/Ntsc) TV. The receiver is only switching the signal between video inputs and the TV is doing the work of deciphering the signals. The only difference between PAL and NTSC is the encoding for the video. The audio signal is no different and my TV doesn’t even get the sound. I have stopped it at the receiver, because it sounds better.
PAL/NTSC are video formats and video does not need to go thru your receiver. Send the video signal (from cable, satellite, DVD player, etc) straight to the TV and only the audio thru the receiver.
