Cordcutting with an Over-The-Air (OTA) Antenna

Cordcutting is the act of "cutting the cord" between you and a crappy cable company.  Most cordcutters are not looking get rid of TV, we just want to find ways to watch content on their TVs for less money and with more control.  If you are new to cordcutting take a look at my Introduction to Cordcutting, it covers the basics. A critical part of the cordcutting strategy is the ability to watch regular network TV (ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, PBS) for free using an over-the-air antenna.  Many people that grew up with cable may not remember the days of using rabbit ears on your TV to pick up a signal.  The principle today is the same but the signal is now all digital and is capable of broadcasting crystal clear HD to your TV for free.
