Over the Air TV
Has anyone else made the switch from cable? I did and honestly do not even miss DirecTV. I've built an antenna (using plans found online) with a 3 x 3 board, some screws, and wire coat hangers. Aside from live sports, not really missing cable. What are your thoughts?

Are Avs games not televised on one of the local major stations? If so, are Avs games getting blacked out?

They're on a local sports station, kind of like Fox Sports. They're not broadcast OTA.

I've been without cable for over 2 years now. OTA antenna that picks up all local KC HD channels. Better picture than old Time Warner.

I use XMBC for all movies and TV. Some sports are still really hard to find. Only downfall of that setup...

i cant stand watching football/baseball/basketball streams, itsux the buffering and the skipping then the occasional cut off.

Netflix makes it easier, but **** that, i need my life sports looking HD. Now, if i culd just get live sports and nothing else, i'd do that. lol

Most major sports teams are on extended pay cable networks or own their own network. So a huge ass antenna only works for footballand you have to be in the area.

I could get Raiders and Niner games, but **** them 2 teams.

Crazy thing is during the football season I unplug the cable and use over the air. The cable connection is full of static and the station is local.

Series 3 TiVo picks up over the air signals in HD. We usually just pay the monthly fee during nfl season and cancel.

This year they offered us a lifetime sub for $100.

Bingo.

Yea, I know if my machine blows a power supply or chip that we could be hosed, but still worh it.

I once bought a TIVO and couldn't figure it out. Wound up using it for target practice.

Only thing I would miss is March madness and weeknight football, and a lot of daytime college football. I'd also miss Justified and SOA but I would get over it.

No.

In fact, I just spent 4 days in the hospital (Back and knee surgery) and me and the wife commented several times about the crappy cable service. Love our DIRECTV.
It took me a while to get her warmed to the idea for ST, although I've had it since day one. I'm Not bailing now. All the TV's in the house including the ManCave look so brilliant in pic and color, no way I'm messing with a good thing.

Now our cell phone bill, I'm working on that.
