Hey Lon doesn't a 4K tv that upscale really good make OTA look almost as good as ATSC 3.0?

Zapper box is now marketing a next gen antenna as "the first antenna specifically designed for ATSC 3.0" but the only ATSC 3.0 feature listed is MIMO. I'm not aware of any stations using MIMO or receivers available to the public that can take advantage of MIMO. Don't give up your old antennas just yet!

Quick question. I have a Televes antenna as well, but I have to plug in the pre amp in order to get the best reception. Is there a way to connect the Zapperbox and the pre amp at the same time?

I am a moderate tech geek and I am considering getting the ZapperBox or other box as well as adding one or more antennas on my roof. This may help me get rid of some programming for my Directv? However most likely my wife will tell me that there’s programming she doesn’t want to lose on DIRECTV and putting an ugly antenna on the roof is a “hell no possibility”. That being said our Buffalo Bills will have a Game that besides the division against Miami this weekend and Directv is in a dispute with channel 2 so I think the antenna will be up tonight. I’ll go from there. Your channel is great and it seems no matter when I search in YouTube related to computer or TV or other text off your channel always comes up. Apparently your channel in my interests match in a lot of ways.

The problem is it doesn't support DRM, and every ATSC 3.0 NextGen channel in my area is DRM encoded!
