On what? I don’t have a tuner
- mbreese 5y agoHonestly. You know exactly you’d need to watch TV (a tuner). Or more accurately, if you have a TV, you really just need an antenna. If you don’t have a TV, then many (most?) local TV stations have a website with streaming video. This is especially true for news and weather. And if that all fails, you can get a network tuner/dvr that will stream broadcast TV to an app. There are many options to get local TV/weather. Let’s not pretend that this is a problem without a solution.
