On a lark I hooked up an antenna to see what was on broadcast TV. There were like 5 pbs channels and a dedicated weather channel. For being free it was pretty good.

PBS is actually better than ever and I prefer it over most of what gets shoved in my face on my PC.

7 bucks a month for "passport" access, so PBS's streaming platform. It's damn good. NOVA episodes all over the place, news, new shows, etc. I gotta up my contribution.

PBS kids is awesome. Their shows are well made and educational and available for free on their app!

I love my antenna. I get like 20 channels. Local news, pbs, and old cartoons and sitcoms.
