YouTube TV. $65/month. It does more than the other streamers. Then add the extras you want a la carte. We are college sports fans and miss almost nothing.

I've been investigating cutting the cable, too, Xfinity is so expensive. One need the Internet, though, and a modem/router that is compatible with whichever Internet provider you use. That is the main reason I've procrastinated - not knowing which modem/router to but (rather than rent from Xfinity ad infinitum).

Check out FUBO TV, which offers all the network channels, and then some. I have a Samsung smart TV, so I'll be able to download the apps for other programming. I, too, am a Britbox devotee, and subscribe to Netflix and Amazon Prime.

I recently bought a Roku device, and pay to be a PBS Passport member. Haven't used it too much yet.

I have one room in my house set up that way. I'm not paying for a third cable box that will hardly ever get used. I'm at the top of a hill overlooking the Sacramento Valley in California. I can pull in about 40 channels that are broadcast. I find that a directional antenna works best, but some adjustments in position are required for some channels.


I'm in Gardena, CA, with a line-of-sight to the hill of transmit towers @ 10 miles.
My antenna gets @ 140 channels. BUTT this is LA!
If you ever wanted to watch a mass of shop-at-home or religious channels in various Eastern languages
this is the place. Various costumes and expertise. Or egregious lack thereof.
Keep waiting to hear "Right you are Ken!" after the two ladies run into each other on the display.

I get the local channels, CBS has 3!, and my "Favorites" number 44 channels.on last reset.
I have 2x indoor antennas, 90 degrees from each other.
It's important that the wires from each are the exact same length.
They connect to a "T", and then to a cheapo amp, then to my TV/.
Lottsa bars.
