Actually orange antennae provide a higher quality signal.
Bit like fuses.

Have learned that the box to descramble the cable signal aren’t made and what’s on the used market has been gained by stealing one from a cable company. Oh, well. Sometimes life has surprises. This one sucks though.
And I’D have to obtain a cable card which cable co. doesn’t want to help getting one, even if they sell the card.

Jweilers, I like your amount of equipment. Very cool. I remember torrents. Oh boy. I use a simple digital antenna on the roof mounted to my old direct tv spot. It is totally free and the 1080 pixel quality is superb! Digital feed right through the air, love it. I think it is because it is free. I use Hulu also because is so so easy and cheap if you want commercials still. Best picture and sound still is from the roof. Pretty amazing if you think about it. I do need to up my size on my Samsung TV , wish I had more than one. 

I'm on the Spectrum teet as well, but many newer smart tv's have  apps loaded that take the place of the cable box...
