2015 NFL Week 8 OTA Lineup

We have some special things happening this week in OTA NFL football in the Charlotte area.  First of all we have another game in the UK which will be broadcast OTA instead of the online stream from last week.  Also the Panthers are in the MNF game, so thanks to the NFL's long standing commitment to keeping local games available via OTA broadcasts the Charlotte market will be able to watch the Monday night game.

Since CBS, Fox, and NBC all have rights to air NFL games it means there is a lot of free football out there for the taking via over the air antenna received signals.  This week(end) there are 5 different games all of which are in HD.  This will be the last week for CBS airing the Thursday Night game.  (Note Greensboro market stations are also listed and indicated with an asterisk (*). )

2015 NFL Week 7 OTA Lineup

This week we have a special streaming game.  Buffalo vs. Jacksonville will be streamed by Yahoo! for free.  The game is being held in the UK so the start time is much earlier than other games, 9:30am EDT.  While this isn't an OTA game, it's still available so we've decided to include it.  Yahoo! has instructions how to view the game on multiple devices including Roku and Chromecast, both of which we're big fans of.

Since CBS, Fox, and NBC all have rights to air NFL games it means there is a lot of free football out there for the taking via over the air antenna received signals.  This week(end) there are 5 different games all of which are in HD.  CBS will carry the Thursday night game from weeks 2-8.  (Note Greensboro market stations are also listed and indicated with an asterisk (*). )

Heroes and Icons

If you've rescanned your available channels recently you may have seen a new channel pop up as a subchannel of WJZY, specifically 46-3. As of October 1st WJYZ, Charlotte's Fox affiliate, began broadcasting a new digital network called Heroes and Icons. And while this broadcast is in SD, 480i to be exact, it is just another source of programming coming through the airwaves for free.


Heroes and Icons, operated nationally by Weigel Broadcasting might draw some comparisons to Grit! networks which the Charlotte market has had access to for a while now.  This is due to the fact that much of the programming is centered around the action, crime, and western genres. Among the current offerings are:
