In most locations, using a standard television antenna will receive a selection of free to air channels. It depends on the area and the proximity of television transmitters. Installing an aerial properly is a specialist task and it is normally worth using a local aerial contractor who knows and understands the reception capabilities in the area.

Satellite is another alternative to cable but is a similar cost to cable in the US and many other countries.

In the UK, three is national coverage for digital terrestrial television, better known as Freeview and Freesat offers about 150 channels free of charge with a suitable dish and receiver. Neither require a subscription or any financial commitment other than the equipment itself.
