Yes, the cable company is sending local HD channels via QAM. Lots of them apparently do this for free. Most standalone HD tuners should be able to decode QAM, but double check when you shop. You can also use an antenna to pull in the local channels, most likely. Rat Shack is selling one for $90, not sure how good it is.

You would need to get a cable HD box and pay more to get the cable HD channels like HBO or ESPN.
