Sling TV

[gwilson31]

Does anybody have Sling TV ?  If you do how do you like it ?  I'm thinking about trying it and I don't know anybody who has it  to ask about it.

I've had Sling for 3 or 4 years, I think. I like it, but it depends on what you like to watch. I get all the channels I like for about 20% of the cost of Directv.

I have been thinking about getting sling myself but have had many questions that I hope will be answered through this discussion.  will it allow me to access my local channel?

You may or may not get any local channels, depending on your package and location. I only get one (Fox). BUT if you have an HD antenna, you can pair it with Sling and watch them.

Sling has different packages of channels (orange, blue, or both) plus add-ons for an extra charge. You'll have to go to sling.com to see which packages contain the channels you want.

We looked into it a few years ago and decided against it - but I don't remember why!  I 'll have to go to their website and check it out again.

I have heard of Sling TV but I never watched it or really know anything about it.

When I saw the promo I actually was tempted to try it out but a buddy of mines says Direct Tv was better, I don't have either since I just use Netflix,Hulu, and Disney+ for my nieces.
