Out here in BumFug Idaho, I put one of those new fangled indoor antennas on the shelf beside the TV. It picks up a couple hundred channels plus, from #2 all the way to about #1573. Shopping channels, Newsmax, various music genres, Spanish Language, etc, etc.

We also share a couple of steaming service codes with our Kids' and family.

One of the benefits of living at 55,000 feet or whatever it is out there I suppose. With an antenna here, we can only get an occasional snowy picture of the pbs channel out of Turdville West Virginia.

2200 feet on the bottom of the valley floor surrounded by mountains.

The good thing is, they put the TV/radio repeaters on top of the highest mountain around. And we have direct line of sight to that mountain about fifty miles away.

Stream FUBO (cheaper than YouTube) over At&T fiber.

No TV for 18 years now. No phone for 3 years. I do watch video online for educational purposes including cultural literacy. So my kids and I watch culturally significant video -- everything from Apocalypse Now, to Blues Brothers, and Charade, hundreds of films.
We've watched some trash made for TV too like the pilot episode of the Dukes of Hazzard and enough A-Team episodes to realize that they're all the same. But I never just sit down to merely be amused by the inane Hollywood garbage. I don't have any of that crap streaming into my house uncontrolled.

Right now I dont have any, but wifey wants streaming and an antenna, so I guess we'll be getting it soon. Until I got this new Verizon internet service, we didn't have fast enough speeds for streaming.

Call them, there is some deal Direct does where you can suspend service
in situations like yours. It will come on and billing will resume on
a date of your choosing.

Antenna and Sling. I pay $30 a month and get everything I want. I've had this setup for 4 years and been very happy with it. We were at $140 on Direct TV.

All of the liberal trash and propaganda that some feel the burning desire to subsidize.

Dish has the same thing. When I moved, I put my dish on 'standby' for $5/mth, until I finally cancelled it.

Deer population density is low, but you don't have much hunting competition there.
