I get at least 20 digital channels. local channels, news, kids channels. etc..
Tv isn't that important in our household, it's rarely on.
Nothing but BAD news and crap on anyways. there's a whole world outside the living room

Eddie get a grounding block for the coax cable. Use a #10 solid copper ground wire. Did you have a new electrical service done on the cottage? Now the electrician has to leave a ground lug on the outside for phone, cable, and antenna grounding

No ,, I did not have a new service but I did have the whole place rewired . I already had circuit breakers , which is special for these shacks .. Started out just a little rewiring ,,new lights ect. ended up going through the whole place ,, hard wired smokes ,, everything .. |

Won't be all. Most are on CBS. FOX when they're playing a NFC team. Than you've got NBC if they've got the Sunday night game. All doable with an antenna.
Tonight they're on the NFL Network, and Monday Night Football is on ESPN if they happen to be on that.
So most, but not all Pats games are available via antenna. Sox are a different story, very few games available on free TV. |
