It has been 15-20 years since I've watched something "over the air"...is there another way to access that programming I don't know? On Amazon Prime, maybe?
I DO have an HD/long range antenna, but it will not reach Fort Worth, much less Dallas. I will investigate further. I'm 120 miles as the crow flies from Decatur? (I think that's where it stated the broadcast would be from). I'm also on the downhill side of some hills away from Dallas/Decatur. That's another problem. I'm 80 miles from Austin--as the crow flies and can't pick up their stations. Waco and Temple is the best I can do.
When I was a kid, 65/70 years ago, we had a 30' mast with a huge antenna, on top of the house. We could reach Roswell, NM--80 miles as the crow flies. But I don't want to put that kind of antenna on top of my house. Don't think it would work in any case. In my case my wife would be yelling at me, "...get your crazy ass off the top of the house. You're going to fall...".
Maybe I ought to watch the Waco Professional NBA Basketball team. Oh wait...they don't have one! Naw...I've been watching the Mavs since the early 80s--day 1, I think. Not going to quit now.
I will find a solution...regardless of where it comes from.
