Yes, the new digitals work off the roof antenna.   Of course newer antennae
are designed for better digital reception too.  I may upgrade in the spring.
I don't get cable and, with a couple of exceptions, don't want to (I'd like
to be able to see TCM for example).

    Not sure on the concept? I GUESS IF ya buy a NEW TV It, too, will work 
off the antenna?Or is this a ploy by the cable raquettiers to FORCE ya to go

cable, satalite or VHS or DVD and just watch movies on yur TV?
