[…]and click “Shown” in order to change it to “Hidden”. Remember to do all of this while the antenna is unplugged or else your TV will freeze up again! After this, you’ll lose that channel, but at least the rest of the channels will work! The Channel Might Fix Itself A few weeks or months later, I did a re-scan and the problem with channel 5.1 went away. So wait a while and do a re-scan to see if the problem solves itself. If not, unplug and remove that channel again. Something to Remember What this means for you is, […]

[…]improves performance. If it does, at least you know what the problem is. You can try playing with antenna position inside your home, or you might need to get an outdoor antenna installed. If All Else Fails… If none of these work, the problem may be at Tablo’s servers. Unfortunately, Tablo Gen 4 requires an Internet connection to Tablo’s servers even to just watch live TV or play back a recording. On the weekend of September 8th, 2024, Tablo’s servers went down rendering all Gen 4 Tablos broken until the servers were restored: Over the weekend users were unable to […]
[…]requires a tuner, so you shouldn’t notice any differences in setup. Now if you use an external antenna to watch free local channels, you will need to get a separate tuner adapter to connect your antenna to your display. Everything they say here is true, but this statement is buried way down on their site. If you look on Amazon, it’s really hard to tell that this “TV” has no tuner! Plus, few people will know to look for this. Ever since TVs first came out, they included a tuner that allowed you to connect antennas to them. Now suddenly, […]
[…]and did the same on my own TV (of similar size and type, and in the same city) using an indoor TV antenna. Here are the results. Direct Comparison Use the slider to compare the image from satellite (left) and broadcast TV (right): Notice how jagged the curves and letters are on left. The “abc7.com” text is especially crappy. The signal is coming from the satellite box’s HDMI output to the TV. Notice the same logo on the right, but using a broadcast TV antenna. Not only are the edges and curves smoother, but there is also less “halo” effect […]
[…]concepts that I talk about in the video haven’t changed! You can still get free TV using a cheap antenna, if you live in or near a big city. Check it out and forward it to your friends who don’t know about free broadcast digital TV! I hope you found this helpful. – […]
[…]your zip code into the Station Finder to see how many channels are in your area. While an outdoor antenna will you should be able to get the green channels using an indoor antenna. Here are some I recommend: If you use a broadcast TV DVR like the Tablo to record live TV, it really turns live TV into more of a streaming TV experience, allowing you to watch shows on your phone as well as your TV (using a Roku). 3. Watch, then cancel! Recurring bills are really insidious. $9.95 per month might not sound like much, but after […]
[…]problem (other than just not using your Stick). 1. Wrap It In Foil Multiple sources on the forums plus my reader confirm that wrapping the Amazon Fire TV Stick in tinfoil solves the interference problem! The foil acts as an electromagnetic shield around the Stick, preventing the worst interference from escaping. Theoretically, a perfect shield would also prevent your wireless remote and Wi-Fi from working with the Stick. But, no one has reported that problem. If you do have problems with your remote not working or Wi-Fi not connecting after you wrap the Stick, try leaving some gaps in the […]
[…]or if you already have wireless home Internet and you want to optimize the placement of your gateway. About Cellmapper Cellmapper.net is the tool that I recommend to find cell towers near you. It uses crowd-sourced data to generate a map showing cell signal strength and tower locations. Anyone 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 […]
[…]there’s very little physical hookup required, other than plugging in power and connecting the antenna. Because the Recast doesn’t connect to your TV directly, you can put it anywhere in your home, ideally somewhere where your antenna strength is greatest, like upstairs, or even an attic! The Fire TV app will guide you through the configuration process step by step. You’ll have to temporarily switch to the Recast’s Wi-Fi network on your device during the process, but the app does a good job of holding your hand as you go. It will even tell you which direction to point your […]
[…]TV market. So, if you can, use an antenna to get CBS. If you’re not able to pick up CBS with an antenna, get Paramount Plus! Watch ESPN on Sling TV If you love ESPN, Sling TV gives it to you for $25 per month. You get ESPN and ESPN2, plus other channels like AMC, A&E, and the History Channel. You’ll need an Internet connection and a computer or iOS device, or a set-top box like a Roku, Amazon Fire TV, or Xbox One to watch it. Once you’re set up, you get full access to ESPN, just like when you […]
[…]streaming services in existence. Roku by itself is not a direct replacement for cable TV or an antenna. There are lots of free channels on Roku, but the most popular ones like Netflix, Disney+, or Hulu require payment. Out of the box, you can’t simply stream all of the network stations on your Roku like you would with cable TV or an antenna (without adding other stuff). It’s a convenient and easy way to watch content 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. […]
[…]guide, when you go past the last cable or broadcast TV channel, you’ll go into Samsung’s TV Plus free streaming channels, which look just like regular TV channels. There’s no real distinction between cable/broadcast channels and Internet streaming channels on this TV. The above screenshot of the channel guide shows that once you get past the broadcast channels, you move seamlessly into Samsung TV Plus free streaming channels. Another cool feature is that the TV will remember your place in a streaming app after you turn off the TV. So let’s say you turn off the TV in the middle […]
[…]DVRs are not my top choices, but they may be appropriate in some circumstances. TiVo Edge for Antenna DVR with All-In Service – DISCONTINUED 2024 Update: It appears that the TiVo Edge for Antenna has been discontinued. You still may be able to find it on eBay though so I’ll keep this section up for a while. Original writeup is below. The TiVo Edge for Antenna has two tuners and an internal 500GB hard drive for recording. I got mine with the All-In Service where you pay a flat fee for lifetime channel guide access, which makes the total cost of […]
[…]I like watching TV from my computer browser and on my phone, and I like putting my Tablo near my antenna rather than near my TV. Network-Connected Tablo Setup My Network-Connected Tablo was easy to set up. I plugged in power, an antenna, and a hard drive and then started the Wi-Fi setup process. I used an iPad to connect to Tablo’s Wi-Fi network, then entered my home Wi-Fi name and password (note I had to use my non-5GHz network). I also had to do two firmware updates, but that wasn’t difficult. After that, I let the Tablo scan for […]
[…]is provide a signal strength meter. This can be VERY useful if you’re trying to fine-tune your antenna placement. To get to this signal strength meter, tune to the desired channel, then press MENU on the remote and cursor over to Channel Search, then select Manual Search. You should see the screen above with signal strength meter (Quality) on the bottom. Summary Since I reviewed this unit, Homeworx came out with a new and improved version in 2022. It has generally the same feature set, but the software is more stable and the remote control feel is improved. I’m linking […]
[…]could purchase a wirelss-to-wired Wi-Fi extender with Ethernet. I like putting my DVR close to my antenna, which is far from my router, so requiring wired Ethernet is not ideal for me because I don’t want to run cables throughout my home. The Tablo and AirTV are two DVRs that have Wi-Fi if you don’t want to run Ethernet to your DVR. Next Gen TV ATSC 3.0? The Flex Duo (which I reviewed) does not support ATSC 3.0. The Flex Scribe 4K and Flex Quattro (AKA Flex 4K) claim to support ATSC 3.0 (Next Generation TV) on two tuners. However, […]
[…]cable channels for $20/month, it’s illegal. Look at the cost of each service and add it up. The Antenna Man talks about more ways to spot illegal services: What to Do Instead For these reasons, I only endorse legal sources of free and cheap TV and movies on DisableMyCable.com. So, feel free to use any of the services that I mention on my site without fear! I personally pay very little for TV and movies, because I use an antenna to get FREE HD-quality broadcast TV, and I watch a lot of YouTube, which has some really great content. I have […]
[…]TV YouTubeTV offers a ton of channels, but the cost is almost as expensive as cable TV! Use an antenna to get your local channels plus one of the lower-cost streaming services above. Only use YouTubeTV if you can’t get your local channels using an antenna. On-Demand Subscription Services – Watch, then Cancel These are not live-streaming services like cable or broadcast TV. Rather, these have libraries of movies and TV shows that you can watch any time as a subscriber. These have monthly fees but you can cancel at any time. I use these occasionally and always cancel after […]
[…]you do a channel scan, you’re ready to start watching live TV assuming you’ve connected an antenna. One note, if you reset your AirTV, you’ll have to delete it from your app in order to restart the pairing process. Tuner Quality The AirTV’s tuner is excellent. My AirTV 2 picked up a whopping 169 channels in Los Angeles. More importantly, it was able to find VHF channel 13 and its sub-channels (where I watch Star Trek on Heroes and Icons), which my Tablo Dual Lite DVR wasn’t. So, that is a big win for AirTV! The tuner brings in more […]
