I purchased a 50' Panasonic LCD HDTV about 1.5 years ago. In my last building, I had Comcast and had no problem having the HD feeds. In my new building I have DirectTV, however the building is not wired for HD to integrate with DirectTV. Therefore, what do I need in order to support HD local channels? If I purchase the Terk HDTVi antenna and plug directly into my Panasonic UHF/VHF coaxial cable, will I receive all of the local HD feeds that I can reach a signal for........or do I need to purchase additional equipment to integrate with Panasonic?

If the TV has a built in HDTV tuner you are good to go with the antenna. If not, then you will need to purchase an external HDTV tuner. Of course, this is only for the local channels and will do nothing for the DirectTV signal. You say "however the building is not wired for HD to integrate with DirectTV". So what you are saying is you do not have a DirectTV box in your apartment?

I have a DirectTV box, but it is not a box that supports HD receptions or has an HD tuner. The management of my building says that the building wiring has not been upgraded to support HD through DirectTV. I do have a box in my apartment though.
