    Dumped cable today...YEA!!!!!!!!!!

    I want to thank the forum for all the insight, information and opinions on my dilemma. However, I think I have solved the cable tv-less situation quite nicely without the FTA setup, but many thanks to the folks who suggested Roku. That thing is the bomb! Got one for my son's tv to check it out...

    Dumped cable today...YEA!!!!!!!!!!

    Yes, I do still get all the channels I used to...just either very fuzzy picture or very poor audio, or somewhere in between. I have seen "scrambled" signals before, I had digital cable at one point and the PPV stuff was always just a mess, unless of course you were paying to see it. This is not...

    OK, so the CC was out today and disconnected the channels. I did a scan on my old CRT tv and my sons HD CD tv. I also have a RCA HD monitor in the basement the kid turned on when he got home from school. Of course, he wanted to know what we still had on tv. I showed him what I had in my bedroom...

    Dumped cable today...YEA!!!!!!!!!!

    I considered all the things that southofi-10 mentioned, and as I said earlier, I have checked out the N. American channels. I am aware the channels I mentioned are not available on fta, at least English-speaking channels. I know what is available to N. America. I have been considering dumping...

    Dumped cable today...YEA!!!!!!!!!!

    Hello forum! I discovered this thing called fta tv several months ago. I read up on it and was intrigued. Just like the title says, I dumped cable today. I usually pay my bill annually and get a very meager discount for doing so, like 3% or something. Last year the annual bill was just under...
