Not really. You can add the private channel "nowhere TV" that has some local stations content: http://www.thenowhereman.com/roku/ but it isn't live, it is different segments you choose to play. You can often though get great HD reception on most HD TVs with a $30-$50 antenna and pickup the local news that way.

Wish there was some legal device out there that could pick up cable channels; It works on broadcast channels in your area only. I get ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, 3 PBS channels and two more that are a bit fuzzy at times. Happy with the channels I can watch, not a tv addict.

I don't know. I only have connected to the local stations in Houston, Texas.

yes. if you have a 'tube' tv you will need a convertor, but if you have a new digital t.v. your tv has a convertor built in to the set. with this, you will receive all local channels. with mine, i receive 53 channels, but that will depend on where you live

Just choose a channel that local radio doesn't use. They are all the same quality.

We have an antenna attached to this so we can get the local stations. I would think you could also use a converter box as well.

Yes, I do the same. You can get the app to play your local news radio, like the I Heart Radio app.

Yes,you should have no problem doing that. Under " My local stations" You will have access to most FM and AM local radio stations thru the internet. But you will also have the option to search FM stations broadcasted "over the air".

No. Only local channels. Please make sure you have the antenna near a window or you will get a stutter in your incoming signal.

Fran-- How would we know? You haven't said where you live. If you live within line of sight of the antenna tower for a local Fox TV station, then you can get it with an antenna like this. If you don't, you can't. Most of the other answers, giving a flat "no," are flat wrong. It's remarkable how many people think that their local TV situation is true everywhere in the country. Most big cities have a Fox station, along with CBS, NBC & ABC. But CNN is a cable & satellite-only channel. However, the antenna should come with a warning that watching Fox News causes brain damage.

We use an over the air antenna for the local channels. It picks up around 20 channels and they are all high definition.

This is for over the air channels only, so it will pick up any local channels that transmit over the air.

It will work on both to get local channels. Beware of the limitations of local channels. You may need an outside antenae if the local station is far from your location. I live in the mountains so I don't receive some of the signals my neighbors higher up the mountain receive.
