It’s extremely difficult to get when it’s through the TV tuner but works a little better when it’s through the converter box except the cord is very sensitive and I have to get it just right for it to come in. I was getting it fine last night but tonight it’s pouring down rain and thundering so it’s not working at all even on the converter box so no Hillbillies tonight. Hopefully the weather will act right and maybe I can see it tomorrow. Shame on Fox 13 for ditching it for that stupid Heroes and Icons channel.

Why do you find Heroes and Icons stupid?

Start TV's company vice chairman says that the channel will be more on a general entertainment channel going forward not solely just focusing on women.

Has YoutubeTV released any statement on why they dropped Decades in most markets ? StartTV is pretty worthless like TBD.
I still have Decades on my indoor antennas so I'm OK other than the ability to record.
I still really like Youtube TV for my needs.It's a very reliable streaming service as long as your internet connection is strong as with any streaming service. The recorder lets you record unlimited content and the shows stay in your library for 9 months. It gives me my local channels like The CW, ABC, NBC,CBS,Fox,MYTV and Comet. I get those on my antenna too but it's nice not to have to bounce back and forth.
At first I had buffering issues but had the cable company remove all my splitters so one cable would run directly into the modem and have had no issues since.It has all the sports channels I used to have with Spectrum at half the cost. BTN,SEC Network,FS1,FS2,ESPN,ESPN2,ESPNU,ESPN News,3 local Fox Sports channels,NBC Sports and CBS Sports.

Watching the Get Smart marathon on WQEK-LD in Memphis and the signal is awful. Lots of pixelation and sound hiccups.
