Converting from cable, rotor, multiple tvs

Great site. I did / do spend 20min or so searching before posting so apologies if I missed the obvious "already answered here".

I'm converting my home from cable to OTA HD. Like many cable homes I have one feed in: quality splitter with direct runs to two good HD TVS, then another run to another quality splitter feeding 4 other smaller / older TV's for basic cable.

Questions I have:
1) Assuming a correct HD Antenna setup (2nd question); can I simply swap out the cable input from the street with the HD antenna output? If not; what are the likely "you gots to do this and this".

2) I live in Hudson NH. If I've understood... One HD Antenna with a rotor will get the TV you're watching tuned in; but all bets are off for the other TV's (if I'm watching WMUR out of manchester; I'll have those wanting boston shows screaming at me? So... as Tiger suggested; two HD antennas... combine and then based upon question 1... connect and let that... byebye cable smile slowly drift across my face :--)

thanks so much.
