Upgrading from Extend to Flex 4k

Post by nate12387 »

Hi everyone,

Right now I have an Extend and am looking at getting the Flex 4K. I live in the Fort Wayne Indiana area and there are only two channels that are ATSC 3.0. Both channels are infomercial. Would there be a benefit to getting the Flex 4k besides picking up those two extra channels that I probably won't even watch? I currently pick up all the other channels besides those two.

Thank you,

Nathan Martin

Fort Wayne isn't on the list of markets slated to get ATSC 3.0 on a major station, and it's unlikely that those two low-power stations will ever have anything interesting since they're run by a company that just leases out channel space and no one is going to lease 3.0 space in a market where there is no other 3.0 service. A FLEX Quatro would probably be a better choice for you.
