Default Will my LCD HDTV pickup regular channels?

I think my TV has a built-in tuner but can I get channels like ABC, NBC, and Fox without an antenna? We're getting rid of cable tomorrow.

Only if you live right at the base of the broadcast towers. Otherwise you need an antenna. If you are interested how big and where you would have to put an antenna go to TV Fool put in your address and say put in 10 ft for a height, that will give a rough idea of both indoor and out.
