Ways to watch without cable

  1. Antenna, free. Point an indoor or rooftop antenna toward the Houston transmitters and run a channel scan. Check the FCC DTV reception map for your address first.
  2. The networks’ own apps. Paramount+ Premium streams the live feed of your local CBS station in most markets. Peacock Premium Plus streams your local NBC station live in most markets. Fox One, the streaming service Fox launched in August 2025, carries the FOX network and many local FOX stations live.
  3. Live-TV streaming. YouTube TV, Hulu + Live TV and similar packages include the Houston stations for a monthly subscription that renews itself.
  4. IPTV USA MAX. The Houston locals sit in their own group next to 32,000+ other channels, on up to four screens, paid once with no renewal. Try a day free.
