Yes, but you will need an antenna that can pickup the signals. This is usually not a problem but if you have an old antenna let's say more than 10 years old then you will need a new antenna. You will also need what is called a "set top box" this will decode the digital signals for you some televisions come with one built in but you will generally need a set top box. You may initially pay more than cable to install it for some cable providers offer free installation if you sign up for 24 months or something but with HDTV there is only one setup cost unlike cable there is not an ongoing cost.

If your TV has a built in HDTV tuner you don't need cable just an antenna. don't be fooled into buying a new antenna if you have one already. There is no such thing as an HD antenna it is just a marketing ploy to get you to spend more money.

Yes, if you have an hd antenna. Type hdtv over the air into a search engine for more information.

Yes, you can buy an over-the-air HD antenna to get free local HD programming.
