Shawnee,

Go here and click on Choose An Antenna.
Just put in your street address and zip code. You don't need to enter your email. Uncheck the send-me-stuff boxes. Look over the other stuff. After you click submit you'll see a list of stations in your area. Click on Show Digital Stations Only.

Look at the list. In order of goodness:

Yellow,
Dark green
Light green
Red
Dark blue
Light blue

If you've got all yellow you might be able to get away with rabbit ears. Otherwise you'll need a better antenna. If you're handy with tools, you can make the one I made (see the earlier link).

If you've got a rooftop or attic antenna, you should be good to go already.
