I recently dumped the cable box,too.
I got a converter box ($34 total including tax and shipping) and I picked up a $7 set of rabbit ears at Home Depot. I now get 14 channels, and remarkably, they’re the same ones I watched on cable.
I do wish the box would lock onto a channel faster than 2 seconds, it makes channel surfing a pain.

If the OP’s TV is new enough to have an ATV Tuner, a convert box is unneeded. Just an antenna. Depending on their location, a good antenna set up, properly installed - could run $200.
