I have an SD TiVo now, along with i/o digital cable with HD (for a test
period). If I get rid of the cable and keep the Direct TV w/TiVo, can
I get an HD signal via an OTA by connecting the antenna into a video
channel into my sony kp51ws510 tv?

fyi, the analog picture from cabl just don't cut it, but the HD is
great and I don't think that I can give it up (but I aint gonna keep
cable and dtv).

Thanks in advance

If your TV has a digital tuner, you won't need a digital receiver. If
the TV does not have a digital tuner, you will need a HD receiver or you
can get an HD DirecTiVo; they have OTA digital tuners built in.
