How do you do without TV?
I could do without my $200.00 cable bill, but I wouldn't get my wifi or phone too

We've been in HD antenna for years. Use a tuner that has DVR functions to watch on any connected TV, local, not cloud.

Yes, we have a couple of streaming services, and with my work I have to have good internet. Our bill for everything is less than $120/month with synchronous gigabit fiber.

We get better picture on HD antenna than many of the streaming services. They compress the signal, so OTA is better.

We have great signal, check your area using a site like the following:
https://www.fcc.gov/media/engineering/dtvmaps

Then we have HD Homerun. Antenna runs to that for tuning, Allowing DVR or pausing functions just like major providers.

They have an app for most devices, Fire Stick, Roku, Android, Xbox, Playstation that you then use to watch.

I can't watch recorded away from home, but I can watch live TV allowing me to watch broadcasted games and not deal with viewing location restrictions.
