HDTV Tuner Cards for PC?

Will an HDTV Tuner card for a PC tune in HD signals without the use of a separate HD cable or satellite box between the wall and the PC? Will it at least tune in the OTA signals? Some of the tuner cards I've seen have descriptions like 'HD compatible' or something that leads me to believe that the actual HD tuner is not built in, but requires the use of an HD cable box like some of the earlier generation big screens, for example...
