Live tv without an Aerial?
We have a sky dish but no Aerial.
We have a basic sky q package in the living room and use chromecast upstairs which works great except for live tv. We can watch live bbc on the chrome cast But not itv 4/5. Will a fire stick / now / Roko work ? Edited at 07:11 PM. |

i'll try checking the itv app on my firetv shortly, but if you have to have live tv and have satellite, what about running extra cables from the dish (you may need to upgrade the LNB) into the rooms and putting in freesat boxes?
the only "live" tv i tend to watch is available on iplayer. everything else is streamed from various sources... |

If you have an actually TV with a digital tuner then maybe look at an indoor arial. Something like this for about £5 LINK. I use one of these and get HD freeview also.

Out of curiosity why don’t you just get a tv aerial.
