[…]from the same company. One reader reported that her cable company was giving her basic cable TV for free with purchase of cable Internet. Here is one ludicrous example. I called Verizon to try to lower my DSL bill. They said I could lower it by bundling a landline with it. I didn’t need the land line, but it was cheaper to get it and just not use it! The catch is that the rate could go up later to more than what you are paying now, so be sure to ask about the “fine print” and any future cost […]
[…]with an Android phone can get the Cellmapper app to help gather data. The site is completely free to use, but since it is crowdsourced, there is no guarantee of 100% accuracy. It might be, say only 80% accurate, but that may be enough for you to get an idea of the signal strength in your area. Using Cellmapper To find the cell towers in your area, simply visit Cellmapper.net on a computer. You could us a phone but honestly, it’s best to use something with a big screen for this. It’s easiest to allow it to use your location […]
[…]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 […]
[…](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 don’t have one; you would have had to set it up). Debugging Antenna Reception Problems If TV viewing or recording is flaky, it may simply be due to poor TV reception. Toggle Antenna Amplification The easiest thing to try is to either activate or deactivate the onboard antenna amplifier. To do that in the Tablo app, go to Settings (gear icon) then activate or deactivate Antenna Amplification. Try it both ways and see which gives you more solid reception. Move Your Indoor Antenna Outside If that doesn’t have any effect, you might want to take more drastic measures. If […]
[…]saves a HUGE amount of time! For that reason, after getting my DVR, I tended to watch recorded TV over live TV. Now, not all DVRs have a dedicated “commercial skip” feature like the TiVo Edge has, but they all have “fast-forward”, which is nearly as good. 5. Solution for TVs with No Tuner or Bad Tuner Believe it or not, some TVs were sold without a broadcast TV tuner. The way they were able to do that was to call them “displays”. If you have a “TV” like that, a DVR is a perfect solution to let you watch […]
[…](and it is truly a TV and not a “display”), you should be able to plug a TV antenna into your TV and get FREE high-definition broadcast TV, as long as you live in or near a major city with broadcast TV towers nearby. If you hate paying for cable or satellite TV, I highly recommend checking the Station Finder to see if there are broadcast channels in your area. The HD Smart Bar is an amplified TV antenna. That means it requires power for circuitry that increases the level of your TV signal. Why I Was Intrigued by This […]
[…]the free Hulu Plus site) are blocked for phones and tablets, so if you mirror your iPad to your TV using Apple TV, you don’t get that content. Oh, and I should mention that while you are using Chromecast with your laptop, you can still use your laptop to do other things. You can open other browser windows, surf the Internet, or do whatever you would normally do on your laptop. You just sacrifice one browser window for Chromecast. iPad/iPhone Compatibility While you’ll get access to the most content using a laptop or desktop with Chromecast, I also wanted to […]

[…]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 […]
[…]past the commercials: Other Apps Currently, there are Gen 4 Tablo apps for Roku, Fire TV, Android TV, Google TV, and iOS. Tablo also just announced Gen 4 apps for Samsung and LG (June 2024). Tablo just announced an Apple TV app (October 2024), but reviews have been pretty poor so far. It sounds like more of a beta. Currently, there is no web app for Tablo Gen 4. That means you can’t watch live TV or recordings from your Tablo Gen 4 in a browser on your computer. Hopefully this is coming in the future. Tuner Quality I tested […]
[…]with an IP address geo-located in your area. So, just something to consider if you stream local TV channels. Personally, I use a TV antenna for local channels so I don’t have this problem, but not everyone can get broadcast TV signals. Reliability vs. Coax Cable Internet Despite the account creation headaches, I still like Verizon’s actual 5G Internet service overall. So far, it’s been fast, reliable, and trouble-free, and it has saved me hundreds of dollars in the first year. I believe that using CATV coax cable to send high-speed data is going to go obsolete, kind of like […]
[…]many channels you’ll be able to get with an antenna, and how you can improve your reception. How TV Signals Propagate In an ideal flat world, TV signals would radiate in a perfect circle outward from the source, like ripples of water in a still pond. The strength of the signal would just depend on how far you were from the transmitter. But, the real world can be bumpy with all kinds of hills, mountains, and valleys. I did some analysis using an online tool at the TVFool.com website to determine how much effect these terrain features have on your […]
[…]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 […]
[…]service for a year now and noticed no problems with reception or coverage. They even gave her a free case and screen protector. Finally, there’s a store right down the street so she can easily go there when she has a problem. So what’s the catch? Metro is great for most people but there are a few caveats: For people like my Mom who rarely travel out of the country, Metro is terrific and will save a thousand dollars after just a few years! And, they have physical stores, which she appreciates when she needs help with the phone. Here […]
