Been tailgating for years, we have tried multiple different antenna systems. We never can get CBS.
What are the best setups for CBS and all the channels?

I know I could use my YouTube TV but I know cell service is not good on campus so that won’t work. If I could get internet, would be golden

I have a verizon mifi and stream it from an amazon firestick. Works like a champ with Youtube TV. I have used it for every home game this year with no issues. Cell reception on campus is fine its inside the stadium that sucks.

YouTube TV is straightforward and maybe the easiest, but the delay will get annoying if you're close to other tents and they're about 10 seconds ahead.

Maybe not what you're looking for, but if you have line of sight and someone in your group already has an account with a spare box, you could try DirecTV (with a tripod) or Dish (with a Tailgater-type dome) to get that, plus all of the ESPN/SECN channels.

It's easier than you think to set up and get going, especially once you get in the groove of where to generally place it, but it's added gear to transport.

CBS is notorious for no signal on campus if I remember correctly. There is a thread or two every football season. I just can't remember the resolution.

We looked into a dedicated satellite system for just tailgating a few seasons ago but it's a bit cost prohibitive.
