    Couldn’t you just use an antenna?

    Because … O(ver) T(he) A(ir)?

    I’m near Detroit and pick up ~50 channels with a $20 antenna.

      This is the best way, but it doesn’t work in every scenario. At my last apartment, I was basically unable to get OTA channels. Too much of the sky was blocked, and I think radio interference from a nearby military base didn’t help.

      In my current condo it works mostly well, but I do get some skipping and drops that can be annoying during a long game.
