[Electronics-Talk] Adding an External Indoor Antenna to a Toshiba Fire TV Model [DVS]

[Pamela Dominguez]

I used that, also.  But before stuff like that, and weather on the computer, 
it was frustrating that the weather channel would block out the local 
forecast.  Pam.

Part of our most favorite source for weather information is from newsline or
the newsline app. We just listen to the forecast for each day for the next
week, and through out the day I check on the weather with newsline since it
gives you all the information details, from the temperature to the humidity
and more.
