Hello all, thought i'd ask this question here as we are mostly grown adults here with a more adult attitude! So, im paying 211$ a month for my satillite service which includes 3 HD boxes, and roughly 150Channels ALL OF WHICH I NEVER WATCH ANYMORE!! I just watch my local news when home and thats IT! so upon researching this on the googles, i realized i could purchase a HD Antenna and recieve my local news and minor other channels.... GREAT! So I ordered this (
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ) That should allow me to get my local news channels, and according to the website they tell you to chk your zip code by, it did in fact say I get up to 52 channels and all my local news channels.... PERFECT! ANyone use an HD antenna before, what are your thoughts?
Next question, I see all sorts of set toop boxes and usb devices for hulu, roku, amazon, netflix, etc.... what are those all about and i understand there is a monthly fee for them, and i have no issue paying for a service, but will something like those allow me to get other channels like TBS, movie channels, etc.....?? I REALLLLLLLLY want to cut the cord here very soon with my cable provider but dont want to till i have all my bases covered...
LAST QUESTION... IS there a way to have a DVR type setup to with no more cable service? I have a spare 2tb hdd, and an external enclosure... can I somehow use this for a dvr type setup?
any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
