re: Pelicans announce launch of Pelicans+ streaming service

This ain't a utility billing cycle brah. You're basically paying at the first of every month including the month of sign up.

WAFB called back and said they are not required to work with indoor antennas. They said that their broadcast tower works well with outdoor antenna.

For as much money as the NBA makes, their media situation is fricking horrendous.

Maybe next year they'll be on Crackle.

Looks like COX BR might have GCSEN on channel 125, FYI.

Live in Thibodaux! Tried OTA antenna route last season to both New Orleans and Baton Rouge affiliates. Kept stepping up the quality and range of antenna short of installing one in the attic or pole. Could not bring up digital channels for either.
Seems like I'm in a "no man's land" for coverage.

But indoor antenna works to the point where i get 2, 27, 33, 44 clearly!!!

Just not 9. WAFB is just being cheap.

Live on Thibodeaux and do not catch Baton Rouge or New Orleans with an indoor antenna. Had my camper here and tried it with an amplified outdoor antenna and still no reception for Baton Rouge or New Orleans.

That’s a good idea. To post location and type of antenna you’re able to catch the OTA channel.

Thanks.

After I canceled my cable, I used the existing coaxial wiring on my house to attach an antenna outside at ground level. Just found where the coaxial line from my TV joined into an exterior line on my house, disconnected the joint, and screwed in the antenna there instead. You'll just need an adapter like this LINK. Basically using the existing coaxial wiring as an extension cord to locate the antenna outside.

I've since done it at houses of two others who had inconsistent indoor reception, and it worked. I live in New Orleans itself though, so it might not help where the tower just doesn't have a strong signal. Also not sure whether if you still have cable, you can use a splitter and get signals from both the cable and the OTA antenna. Might be worth a try.

I use flat antennas similar to this LINK. They're cheap and easy to install. I have streaming, but antennas still have been useful. Smart to have at least as a backup when internet/cable has problems

Move your antenna until you catch wafb.
Youre so close to the towers just moving it a little makes a big difference. Catching channel 2 and 9 from st Gabriel isn’t easy b/c the towers aren’t really in the same direction, so you end up pointing between them and then both signals are weak.
You can catch nbc and fox very easily. I’ve stuck a small piece of copper in the port on the tv and caught those channels. Catching channel 2 and 9 usually requires you to point in the right direction.
Download the antenna point app.
If all you have it for is to watch pelicans games, then just point towards channel 9 tower.
