TV, what everyone used to know, now it's forgotten knowledge...

This won't be a recommendation... it's just info. Indoor antenna's are amazing.. in a 'hey it's always been that way' kinda way.

I get over 120 channels, most in HD, for FREE... broadcast channels that is. And I live in as remote an area as anyone on this board... with maybe a VERY few exceptions. I can't even guess how many you would get.

They are DIRT CHEAP.... like $20 for a very GOOD one... maybe $40 for the best possible. Plug it directly into your TV and PRESTO... you're good to go... just get the 'input' right.

I went a step further... because I wanted those channels on ALL my TV's... so this isn't necessary unless you would like that as well... I bought a unit that sends those channels over your home Wifi... so I can watch those channels on any TV in my house, AND devices. YEs, it requires some extra gear... maybe $140... there are several. But these are NOT required.

I also have what you have, for the most part.. Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime... I do NOT have Starz, HBO (well, yes I do but I just haven't set it up, I get it thru AT&T), DirecTV or Dish. I watch the free stuff from my indoor antenna most of all... well, sorry, not lately no... I've been on a movie watching binge... but other than that... indoor antenna broadcasts.

Something to think about. - JamesJM
