[QUOTE="NDwalleyes, post: 261541, member: 218"] We dropped Midco about a year ago and kept the broadband. Digital HD antenna in the attic with a Rocketfish amplifier hooked to it. Fed the antenna signal into the old cable lines and works awesome. We get about 15 channels in Bismarck. We went with DirecTV Now through a Roku stick and it works great. Still get way more channels than we need for $65/month. Something to keep in mind when you drop cable is the capacity of your wireless router. Stop and think about all the devices that are using your router...phones, tablets, laptops, TVs, printers, gaming systems.....they add up quickly. My advice is to invest in a good unit. The money you save by not paying Midco $150 a month adds up and pays for the router pretty quick. With the money we saved, I got the MLB.tv and MLB.tv packages and we still come out ahead.
