No thanks don’t need the fake news!
This is all about the apps, barely mentions local broadcast watching at all. Humbug.
Just added Roku and want to get local channels on my antenna as I did on dish. How do you add to Roku ?
What has any of this got to do with getting local channels?
Still can't find any.
How do you get abc, nbc, and cbs? These are free air waves. Is there a way to get these without an antennae?
Well it sounds nice but I don't have internet, I being trying to get the internet but it being so hard to get the internet because I live in a bad area out in the wooded area in the state of Michigan upnorth.
I asked a simple question can I use antenna to get local channels and got nothing
Very good
Does Geolocation affect the Roku love channels ? Were in The Bahamas and our roku channels just show a black screen
What part of "LIVE TV" don't you guys understand????
Live tv is NOT served up on from servers. Live Tv is BROADCAST for all to see at the same freaking time!!
CBS showing Young Sheldon on Thursday night is LIVE TV. Letting you pick from a server giving you several past episodes to choose from is NOT Live Tv.
But you already know that. You and all the other youtubers using the words "Live Tv" are just click bait weasels.
You know that people search for the words "Live Tv" for a way to get the local channels on the internet. And you also know you aren't going to give them that information because all you care about is clicks.
I've only gotten one fourth of the way through your clickbait, but I am willing to bet that it ends with you telling people to get an antenna…as if they didn't already know that.

GET LOCAL CHANNELS FREE
If you have a Roku TV and remote,
1). Unplug the antenna📡from the back of your TV📺
2). Power🔌off TV manually
(power button) at the back of your TV
3). Reboot (🔌 power on)
4). Plug/Screw in📡 antenna
5). This will AUTOMATICALLY set your TV station to 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, etc… Channel 4, PBS channel 5 SO on so forth.
6). Manually select the channels you want to ADD to your FAVORITE'S ⭐
7). USE the LEFT ARROW◀️ button to select the channel (s)
8). USE THE STAR 🌟 BUTTON on the ▶️right side your remote,
9). PRESS the ✨STAR🌟 button
10). This will give you a CHANNEL OPTIONS: Drop-Down to
A). FAVORITE or Unfavorite the channel '(s) that you want to keep or remove
B). Hide this channel
C). Manage channels
D). Close (the application options)
These guidelines should probably apply for any type of television HOWEVER, this what I figured out on my own with my ROKU TV AND ROKU STANDARD REMOTE.
Being that the Roku tv settings doesn't provide helpful guidance, I hope that these HIDDEN instructions are beneficial now you NO LONGER HAVE TO ADD ALL those different HAYSTACK & NEWS ON APPS!
you can add your LOCAL CITY & STATE Channels on your own😘😉😜👍NO MORE HIDDEN FEATURE'S 👍
Trying to find out how to get antenna tv for my local news through my roku stream bar.

How do I get Fox ABC CBS NBC live channels on roku ?
My channels keep getting removed everytime I turn the TV off. I have to constantly search for channels to watch them. A 10-20 min process each time
I CAN NOT FIND the channel Movies/free
I use Hulu, Roku Channel, and Pluto Tv.

This is NOTHING NEW.. What a Joke
Trying to get the live tv option to function under roku on a second tv. Works perfectly on the living room tv. Bedroom tv has the option but nothing happens when I click on it. What am I doing wrong?
After I scan for local antenna TV channels, at the end do I IMMEDIATELY hit OKAY On my remote?
My daughter gave me a Roku stick a couple years ago. I’m unable to use it because it’s so complicated. I’m 82 years old and not into electronics! I barely can operate my cable Tv clicker. I wished your video showed more step by step on how to rather than cover all the shows and channels that’s available. Us old people need a step by step guide, Starting at which button to press first, then what to do next. The instruction booklet that come with the Roku stick was not helpful. Please help us old folks!
Does it work without internet
Well if you have to pay for subscriptions it all adds up.
