[…]broadcast signals. Q: Where can I get free Internet access? A: This is more difficult than getting free TV. See my suggestions to lower the cost of your Internet service. Q: Can I use my satellite dish to receive free broadcast TV signals? A: Unfortunately, no. The satellite dish is not the correct shape and has special electronics that make it not usable for receiving free broadcast TV. However, you can still use the coax cabling from the dish to your TV if you want to install a broadcast TV antenna where your dish was. That would save the step of […]
[…]playing. You may get lucky and find them playing for free! Powered by My Recommended Free TV and Movie Sites Classics Original Content Broadcast Network Websites Many of the shows on these sites require cable TV login, but there are still some free shows available if you look carefully. Note, some of these sites are blocked on tablets and mobile devices, so use these on desktop for best results. Cable/Streaming Networks and Shows Note, many of the shows on these sites require cable TV login, but there are still some free shows […]
[…]out! Scroll to the bottom of the page and click “Stream Now” for the free movies. 4. Sling Free TV Sling has a great low-cost streaming service but I recently discovered that it has a free TV streaming service as well! No credit card or sign in needed! I immediately started watching “The Walking Dead”. Well worth checking out! 5. Plex Plex really upped their game and now offers some great movies and TV shows. Check out the “Plex Picks” and you’ll see what I’m talking about. Another cool feature is that if you use their search bar, it will […]
[…]on your TV, and it allows you to “mirror” the screen from your iPhone, iPad, or Mac to your TV. To use Apple TV, you need to have Internet access, and you’ll have to connect your Apple TV to your home Wi-Fi network or router via Ethernet cable. Connection to Wi-Fi is pretty easy as long as you know your Wi-Fi password. Why I Now Recommend Roku Instead For a long time, I used my Apple TV for two exclusive features: the ability to play iTunes-purchased movies, and for AirPlay, the ability to mirror an iOS device’s screen to the […]
[…]is “no”. There is a DIRECTV NOW service with the Roku app, but that is separate from DirecTV, and DirecTV customers can’t use the app without subscribing. Xfinity does have a beta Roku app that lacks some features but is still usable. Spectrum TV does have a Roku app that allows you to watch your content using a Roku, but only when connected to your home’s Internet (i.e., you can’t use it in a hotel, for example). So in this case you could use it as a substitute for a cable box. Since this site is about cutting cable and satellite, I don’t subscribe […]
[…]from the Internet on your TV. Having said, that, there are a lot of free channels such as Pluto TV, Tubi TV, YouTube, and many more. Roku has voice search and you can stream music, photos, and videos from your phone to your TV. Since it has a lot of channels and is easy to use, Roku is now my number one set-top box recommendation! Prices range from $30 to $100 for the Roku Ultra. I recommend the Roku Ultra because it will last for years before becoming obsolete. I’m still using the first Ultra that I bought many years […]
[…]software, with the DVR functionality requiring some research online to get working. 3. AirTV 2 / AirTV Anywhere – May Be Discontinued OCTOBER 2024 UPDATE: The AirTV 2 and AirTV Anywhere are no longer available on the Sling website and AirTV 2 is no longer in stock at many other online retailers. I chatted with Sling customer service who said the AirTV 2 is “discontinued on sling.com” although they would continue to support it and referred me to another site which is blowing out the AirTV 2 and AirTV Anywhere at massive discounts. So, although you can get a great […]
[…]have to buy a new TV, or buy a digital TV converter box (also called a tuner box) in order to get free TV using an antenna. Converter boxes run about $30 to $50. Consider These Points Before You Buy a Converter Box The cost of new flat screen TVs has come down so much that you might want to consider just buying a new TV if you can afford to spend a little more. Here are some reasons why: Whatever you decide, you should make sure there are broadcast TV signals in your area before making any purchases. Enter […]
[…]you’re interested, here’s how I set up my antenna in my living room. See What’s on TV – A Free Channel Guide Website OK, so your antenna is hooked up. Congratulations! Now, how do you see which shows are playing? Fortunately, there is an online channel guide called Titan TV. You can view this on your smartphone, tablet, or computer. The setup is not immediately obvious the first time, but I’ll explain it below. First, go to titantv.com. Go to the bar above the channel guide and click the “+” button (this is very hidden): When you click that, a popup will […]
[…]are cheaper than cable. You Will Need Three Things: 1. A TV that is capable of receiving digital TV (DTV) signals. Most flat-screen TV’s made in 2006 or later have this capability. (Old tube-style TVs will need a converter box.) 2. A length of coax cable. This cable is usually white and the ends look something like this: This cable might already be plugged into your TV. If so, unplug the other end and leave the end plugged into your TV. Unscrew the cable from whatever it is plugged into by rotating the hexagonal cuff counterclockwise. The shorter the better in this case […]
[…]button below and enter your zip code. Wait a few seconds, and it will show you how many potential free TV channels are available in your area. You should be able to get most of the green and yellow channels using a good indoor antenna. Click on the station’s call letters to see what direction the signal is coming from on the map to help you orient your antenna. THE RESULTS OF THE STATION FINDER ARE BASED ON THE FCC DATABASE AND DO NOT GUARANTEE THAT YOU WILL BE ABLE TO RECEIVE ALL OF THE CHANNELS LISTED. If That Site Is […]
[…]services available today. But, in the past year or so, I’ve been so glad to have access to free broadcast TV through my antenna. The reason is this: Broadcast TV is the most reliable medium for getting real-time news in times of crisis, surpassed only by a battery-powered radio (because that will work even if the power goes out). Cable and Internet Infrastructure is Vulnerable Cable and Internet service can be pretty flaky, even when there isn’t a disaster happening. How often does your Internet go down even when everything is normal? During a natural disaster such as a severe storm, […]
[…]require an Internet connection. There are many streaming devices available, including Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, and Google TV Streamer 4K. But the one that I am recommending for most people is Roku. It offers the most channels, voice search across many content providers, and headphone output, all at a reasonable price. Read my full Roku review here, or more about all of the streaming devices I’ve reviewed: Step 3: If You Need Cable Channels, Try These Affordable Streaming TV Services Using an antenna is great for getting your local stations plus the major networks and PBS. But what if you need certain cable TV channels like AMC, […]
[…]give up one of your streaming services, like Netflix? Some Things You Could Do Instead of Watching TV Here are some things to do if you decide to give up TV during Lent: I’m sure you have plenty of things that you can think of! So, do you think you could give up TV for Lent? What would you like to accomplish during that time? Please comment below! – […]
[…]linking to that new version below. This is an amazingly low-cost box that lets you use a broadcast TV antenna with your older TV with a basic but functional DVR as a bonus! My only beef is that the remote control is pretty cheap and you have to aim the remote precisely at the unit for it to trigger. This was annoying but not a show-stopper for me. The picture quality and functionality of this one are great. If you need to find a converter box for your tube TV or older flat screen, check this one out! You can […]
[…]folks have complained about. I love free channels, so I found many of the ones I like such as Tubi TV, and Pluto TV. I’m also really into YouTube, but due to the feud between Amazon and Google, the YouTube app has been pulled off of the Amazon Fire TV store a few times. Currently, it’s back on there, but the YouTube TV and YouTube Kids app are not available. In any case, you can still watch YouTube on Fire TV using Amazon’s Silk browser. The experience is nearly the same as using a native YouTube app. There’s even a […]
[…]do a firmware update on your Roku. Applications The process of playing media from my phone to my TV using the Roku is so simple that I have disconnected my Apple TV! That was the one thing I was using it for. I’ll definitely be using this feature to view my phone videos on my TV! Other uses include showing vacation photos, or doing presentations (if the slides are saved as photos). You can easily step through your photos using your remote. You can use the music player for playing background music at a party! Isn’t this cool? What do […]
[…]like “Becoming Bond” and “City of Gold”. After I bought a new Mac laptop, I got Apple TV+ free for three months, so we enjoyed two seasons of Ted Lasso for free. If you have AT&T for your cell phone service, you get HBO Max for free. Some T-Mobile plans include Netflix for free. I also did this with YouTube Premium to watch the entire first season of “Cobra Kai”, which was great. You may be thinking that these free trials are only a temporary solution since you can only do them once per service. But, new services are cropping […]
[…](not called Network-Connected) lets you watch recordings on streaming boxes Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, and others, plus on a browser or Android or iOS mobile device in your home. If you subscribe to the Tablo TV Guide Data Service, you can also watch your recordings anywhere using your phone or other Internet-connected device, which is pretty cool. The TV-connected Tablo connects directly to your TV via its HDMI output comes with a remote control. You can only watch recordings from other TVs in your home with a subscription to the Tablo TV Guide Data Service! You cannot watch […]
[…]better than DISH. Conclusion In any case, I still find it amusing that the picture quality for a FREE TV service is better than one that you pay thousands for every few years. Granted, satellite TV offers a ton of channels, but, you might be able to get the channels you need for less money by using an antenna along with cheaper services like Sling TV. Let me know your thoughts below! I hope you found this comparison helpful. – […]
