I had a similar experience with digital antennas. Against a window facing East I got several Spanish channels. Against a west facing window I got no channels. From the center of the house, none. From the attic, none. I gave up and eventually threw away the antenna. I was living in Tierra del Sol South, near 466 and Morse. Verizon is advertising 5G packages with unlimited bandwidth for about $35 a month, as I recall. Not yet available in the village where I now live, but 5G can work really well, and it can be connected somehow to a tv. Of course, it might be necessary to purchase a streaming package from some provider, like Apple or YouTube.
On a limited budget, libraries have lots of books that can be borrowed for free. They even have DVDs and unabridged books on CD people can borrow.
