Too many channels appearing recently

[meazz12]

I have noticed recently there are over 125+ OTA channels appearing on my TV.
It looks like many channels I thought were not free but I am getting for free, for example, MAVTV, Power Nation, Sports Giro, Comedy Central, MTV Pluto, Skill Thrills, Film Rise, Hallmark Movies and many many more, news channels, etc.

Here's my location.

Hello, meazzz12

Your TVFool report is out of date. Here is an estimated report from rabbitears.info:

You can do your own report here (I use coordinates from Google maps):

Looks like you have some cable or streaming channels in there, not just OTA.

What do you get if just the TV only is connected ONLY to the OTA antenna, without any cable, DVR, or streaming connection?

I have the OTA antenna connected to the coaxal antenna port to the tv and a Fire TV connected to the HDMI port of the TV.
The Fire TV has streaming apps running but I did not think that would do this.

No wonder they call this a smart tv.

Thank for the new report. That looks like a different location than your TVFool report.

HA HA, that's a good one!

I know many of the new smart TVs will mix streaming channels into the guide with OTA channels.. usually they are free channels..subnsets from Pluto etc. Sounds like yours mixes channels from pay sources also. Its even more confusing when you have only the OTA antenna connected but the TVs wireless internet connection goes and adds streamed channels.
