In this video I show a legal way to live stream ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox, PBS, and CW for free. The website is similar to the now defunct Locast but is a true non-profit. It works great as a substitute for a channel that's missing from an antenna.

Hey, Tyler, I bought a CS 4 Max antenna. I am able to get all of the necessary channels, except 1: from one antenna position that I've tried(mounted on a 25 ft deer stand like pole outside), the 2 stations that I get will stay on through a torrential downpour for several hours. I get PBS, NBC, and ABC via these 2 stations. The WCBI CBS station that I haven't been able to get consistently is the most important, because it is the channel I grew up with and OTA channel used most in the past. I have gotten all 3 stations perfectly in one spot in average temperatures(including the missing WCBI CBS channel). But, a strange thing happened, I had to run go get extra cable before dark and, when I came back, the antenna had slumped over out of position(but it didn't fall and still works). Every since then, I haven't been able to get all 3 stations to work together anymore. Would the Televes pre-amp $69.99-$79.99 that you reviewed help me? EXTRA INFO ABOUT MY ANTENNA SETUP: 1 station goes completely out without my Onn pre-amp. The other station does not work as well without the Onn Pre-amp. I am using 100 ft RG-59 cable that is Quad shielded. I live within 55 miles of towers and I live in a wood infested rural area. I often use another much smaller TV than the family TV outdoors and adjust the antenna as I watch to test whether the antenna positioning will work.

My problem is NOT getting lots of channels...my problem is getting somebody to install, point, and properly test the signal for optimum strength (i.e they know what to do besides climbing onto the roof). I'm not talking about some guy getting up on a ladder and putting the antenna on a pole (I can find a handy man to do that). I'm between Buffalo and Rochester NY. I'm 71 and my climbing on ladders days are over.
@miketech79
@miketech79 Жыл бұрын
I used to live between Rochester and Buffalo. Your main problem is that the signals also come from many different directions. It is even possible to pick up Canada ones depending on your location, so this becomes a problem to do without a rotator and a directional antenna. You may have better luck going that route than trying to get someone to point the antenna.

Your problem was solved decades ago with a Channel Master Antenna Rotator. Like this channel praises, get a high quality antenna, do it once and done. Did that when I got a new roof. Let 'em put it up high and straight, you do the assembly on the ground (with the rotator and short post) and have 'em haul the whole contraption up, strap to the chimney or whatever, and all you get is the coax and a remote control wire on the ground and have fun rotating.

Great content on your videos. Very informative. Back in the 1970's, my parents lived on a hill in central Maine and we had a rotary antenna on top of the house. I got into some DXing long distant TV signals and on some good days, I could receive Boston stations. I even got beyond that range when atmosphere conditions were good. Lots of fun to search for signals back in the analog days.

Yet you failed to mention to go to the FCC website to see if there are any towers in your local area.

What about local streaming services that are on the East Coast?

One challenge is areas like NYC where there are many areas that are near deadzones for antennas, especially when the direction of the transmitter has a large apartment building complex between you and the transmitter. Most developments to not take into considering RF propagation, thus over time, you end up in a situation where even though the transmitters are 10-12 miles away, many channels have a very weak signal even with an amplified antenna.

When I first started using an antenna, I was able to get a good signal for all the Boston stations except for WFXT (FOX). That one is tricky. Last summer, i was watching the MLB All-Star Game and when nit got too pixelated to watch, i remembered Tyler's older video about Puffer, and gave that a try., I guess there were less than 500 people who were trying to watch this game, because i had no problem accessing it. And since it was a live nationally televised game, the fact that I'm on the east coast didn't matter. I've since been working on trying to get that FOX channel on an antenna, and I think I finally have it working. But Puffer is still a good backup just in case. Beats the hell out of paying for KZbin TV or something like that.

I used to live in Boston, never had a problem with getting Fox. I looked at the FCC data on the channels. The Fox transmitter antenna is a bit lower in height than some of the other stations. But I think the main issue is that they have a funky directional signal pattern with their transmitter antenna that might lower the signal depending on the direction from the tower. Their power output seems fine and is higher than most of the stations.

A lot of the small network that had some nice programming that was free to watch. Those programs got put on pay tv. You can fight but see slowly free tv going away. Can see one-day only way to watch the news you got to pay to see it. So that new format they want to uses for free tv. By the times they get the bugs work out. They will be nothing lift on free tv. Pay tv company's will have bought all the free programming. The more I think about it. You guys should not push for the format we got now. You should of kelp the old analog format was better and just let it slowly die out.

If using an antenna: Buy one of those you recommend, OR just use the one that already came with your house decades ago.

There almost needs to be laws concerning antennae. There's maybe 16 to 24 "good" models. Only Televes has something new. The rest won't meet your needs for your location, or are junk.

"If you're a 'cord cutter' or use an antenna"? Using an antenna IS part of being a "cord cutter." Why not just say "if you're a 'cord cutter'," since that already covers using an antenna?

You need to use the internal tuner built into your TV for an antenna, not the Roku. You must switch from HDMI to TV on the TV's remote and run a channel scan. For additional assistance, sign up for my consultation service below: www.antennamanpa.com/antenna-recommendations.html

Check the website again. I have a list of antenna recommendations on it FOR FREE. I'll even include the link below for you. I only charge if someone needs me to look up their reception and guide them through the install as it takes time out of my day. www.amazon.com/shop/antennaman/list/2LH365VAPDKLC?tag=onamztylerkle-20&ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_ofs_mixed_d
