When you have a HDTV with antenna will it be necessary to go with a cable company?
No, and actually you will probably get more over the air channels than before, and with much higher quality than you might expect. Some of the channels are being broadcast in HDTV format, which has higher resolution than standard TV. Look at other questions about HDTV and how to find out what stations are in your area and how to choose the best antenna.

All TVs including new ATSC Digital ones use the same frequencies as older NTSC Analog sets.
