$189 for cable? That is insane. I took great joy in cancelling my Dish Network.

What equipment (cable or cords) would I need to have an antenna, A fire (or Roku) stick, and DVD, and VHS. Is it possible to have all that hooked up to the TV at once? How would I do that?

@AbbottsAtHome 4 місяці тому

To get access to free local tv channels all you need is a digital TV antenna. It plugs into your TV. Here's the low cost antenna I use on Amazon: amzn.to/3LPPbh4. Check your TV to see how many HDMI ports (plug-in openings) you have. Some TV's have 4 or 5 now. But, if you only have 2, then DVD and VHS can just be plugged in when you need them. You can keep an antenna, Fire stick or Roku plugged in to ports most of the time. I hope this helped. :) Check out my blog post about how to cut the cord for more details: www.abbottsathome.com/cut-the-cord-with-cable-watch-tv-for-free/

Nice but we are in West North Carolina and only one major network is in Asheville. The others are in SC or TN and with the mountains it makes it hard to get broadcasts without a high, directional antenna. We pay $175 for TV Internet and Phone and I'd love to drop the TV but each network has at least one program my wife wants to watch. I think to turn off TV you have to d it for at least 60 days so there is no savings doing it when you go one vacation.

@AbbottsAtHome Місяць тому

Can you get high speed internet in the mountains?? You can stream TV with just the internet. But, I’d test whether or not you like the free TV options on Roku before canceling cable or direct tv. 👍

I had no idea there was a 60 Minutes Australia until I watched content on youtube, I think the AU show is 10 X better than the US version. youtube has a bunch of my favorite channels like Nat Geo Wild. Its amazing how much good stuff, like A&E etc...is available for free on youtube.

I don't have a smart tv and interpreted your Roku 4 stick the necessary thing to workaround. However, I was wondering why is it necessary to have a smart tv? Can't you tether your laptop or phone and stream that way without your TV being a Smart TV?

@AbbottsAtHome 6 місяців тому

I think Smart TV’s just mean they have the software to connect to the internet or phones, laptops, etc and then perform the work. I’m not sure older TV’s can do that. You’d need special equipment. The Roku stick just provides an easy to use interface for connecting to streaming apps. 👍😊😊

@gwillis01 5 місяців тому

The thing that makes a TV "smart" is the fact that the internal software can quickly and easily connect to the internet.

Thank u soo much. I am 67 and am an idiot about technology of any sort. I am cutting cable in a few days and seeing what I need. Your cherished me stuff I had no idea was available. Question: To watch Fox tv programs or at least daily clips or u talking about youtube free videos or the paid youtube?

@AbbottsAtHome 10 місяців тому

I'm happy to help! You can watch FoxNews free on UKposts here: www.youtube.com/@FoxNews/videos and the Fox TV channel is on the Tubi app and Roku app for free.

You forgot to cover one very important topic. My cable plan includes a DVR for recording shows. Do any free streaming services offer free cloud recording?

@AbbottsAtHome 3 місяці тому

I thought I’d miss my DVR when I quit cable. But now all of the shows I watch are available to stream anytime. You don’t really need a DVR. If I like a show, ex. Chicago PD, I just go to the Peacock app (since they make the show) and I can see any episode from all of the seasons plus new ones as they come out. If you need to DVR a sporting event that you can’t watch on an app you subscribe to, I think you can buy a simple DVR on Amazon that can be programmed to record off your live tv. 👍

@larrylutsky181 3 місяці тому

@AbbottsAtHome thanks, I'll look into it.

Does this work for Canada

@AbbottsAtHome 8 місяців тому

I would think so. Roku is one of the top streaming sticks in Canada too. The CBC also has a UKposts channel www.youtube.com/@CBCTheNational/videos. You could search for other news on UKposts too. Most of them will have a channel. All of the other streaming apps should work the same for you too. :)

TSN is one of our channels we watch mainly for CFL .. lol … would we get a subscription ?

@AbbottsAtHome 8 місяців тому

@@54suzie I just did a quick search. It looks like there is a CFL+ app that you can watch games on (on a tv, computer, or phone). I'd test it out for a week or two on 1 TV and see how you like it before canceling cable. But, hopefully you end up saving money. :)
