Seeking Help Viewing of HD channels without HDMI connectivity is possible?

No, HDMI connectivity isn't required to view HD channels. Only requirement is STB need to have RCA cable ports. Even i used this method on my Samsung dabba TV in the past. Tata Sky HD box used to provide RCA ports than.

But how does the picture fit in 4:3 screen?

Black bar comes at top and bottom. Tata Sky provides settings to modify aspect ratio, i used that. Don't remember properly but it works. As SD PQ used to be very good on CRT TVs, never subscribed to HD channels.
 
I Also Used D2H HD For 5 Years In CRTV.
Connected Using RCA Cable.

There's Picture Aspect Ratio Setting Menu In STB.
In It, Have To Select TV Screen Type,
4:3 (CRTV/Dabba TV) or 16:9 (LCD/LED),

Then Have To Select Aspect Ratio Type Like,
Letterbox/Full/Cropped or Stretched/Zoom/Pillarbox.

I am wondering. Is it even possible? Isn't HDMI cable required for same?
You can watch HD channels even with RCA cable but if your TV is old Model CRT then it would be fine, SD and HD channels wont make a much difference on CRT TV. But if your TV is a LED then quality would be very bad because of RCA connection.
