I have had a huge 90+ mile antenna in my attic for 29 years. Because of my location I have to amplify it. I still pay for locate as a backup because there are times the local stations lower their power and I lose them for whatever reason. My antenna runs into a 4 tuner HDHR and then I run a VM for Channels that has a 2TB drive attached to it dedicated as DVR. Locast at times has audio sync issues and just like Dish ormDire TCS is rather obvious down-Rez. One thing that is cool about OTA is all the sub-channels available. Also I have been paying for locast and Channels since February 2020.
And the rate times Internet is down you can still watch TV and things you have DVRed
