Most, but not all! In San Francisco, NBC (KNTV-11) is already on VHF
channel 12, and ABC will be moving to VHF channel 7 in 18 months, when
their analog vacates the channel.

In Sacramento, there are no VHF DTVs now, but on Transition Day PBS
(KVIE-6) and ABC (KXTV-10) will be moving to VHF channels 9 and 10
respectively.

Likewise in other cities.

Salespeople at "big box" stores will tell you you MUST buy a new HDTV
antenna for use with your new HDTV. The antennas they sell are nearly
always UHF-only. Do not expect to receive all your local stations if you
buy their special antenna. It may work now, but some of your channels may
disappear in 2009.

If the antenna you already have on your old analog set is working OK, it
will be fine for HDTV.
