(CNET): Upgrades in Free Over-the-Air TV Are Making It Better

Posted on December 16, 2022 in ATSC News

An inexpensive antenna is all you’ll need to get ABC, CBS, Fox, NBC and PBS stations in most major cities across the country. Over-the-air TV, aka the way most Americans got their TV for most of the latter half of the 20th century, has gotten a huge upgrade.
