Local TV Options?

They shut down? Noooo. We used Locast while traveling earlier this year... At home we have an antenna and a Tivo. We also paid Mr. Antenna to install a proper antenna, so reception is excellent.

Literally the only thing we use it for is Seahawks games. There is no comparison in terms of quality and control for live sports.

I have a home made antenna that works like a charm. It artwork too….kinda.

We have a digital antenna. We get all the local channels plus.

We just use a basic Mohu Leaf antenna. We get all the local channels and they all come in very clear. Sometimes during a strong wind the reception breaks up. The Leaf is very inexpensive.

I've used a digital antenna in the past. Depending on where you live it should work great for you. Pick one up from somewhere that you can return it if the signal isn't strong enough in your house/building/neighborhood.

The best option really is an antenna. Even for us way out in Woodinville. I need to put a monster antenna in my attic, and it's still gonna be worth it to drop $150/mo for DirecTV (which does provide locals).
