The TV Tuner card in this system, does it take input from a regular OTA antenna(rabiit ears or otherwise)?

I have looked high and low for a block diagram.
I would like to know does the tuner card(the system period)...........where does the TV signal come from.
Is it a a regular OTA antenna, can I use it with my directv system some how?
