No. A Digital Cable Ready TV has a digital tuner and a CableCARD slot. A TV with an integrated digital tuner but no CableCARD slot can receive local digital and HD programs from over-the-air broadcasters, but requires a cable box to receive the cable TV programs broadcast by your cable service provider including advanced digital services.
