I pull in Orlando channels using relatively inconspicuous directional antenna mounted on roof. (Couldn’t mount in attic due to interference from radiative barrier in circa 2016 home.)

Can't stream from your phone in your secondary location but you can stream from a PC. I tried the app and that is what I found.

"I bought an expensive antenna, and it got no local TV stations! I was told that it may be because of the foil insulation (?) in the attic? I decided to get a SMART TV and purchased Internet through Comcast Infinity. I rent the modem ($14.95 per month) (you can buy your own modem) and the Internet costs $20 per month. This gives you free Peacock and I just use all the SMART TV apps and ones I pay for to watch televion shows or movies."

Xfinity & You Tube TV
I agree with those who use You Tube TV. It was the perfect fit for us to have local channels and a great channel lineup for both our locations. I also agree with RoadToad that basic internet/speed is ample for security cameras and streaming. Gamers might want more speed, but we've had no problem with Xfinity basic internet.

$25 a month article I just read

This was just posted on Consumer Reports. I have not checked it out, but will give it a shot. I currently subscribe to youtube.tv and appletv, and lots of add ons. I use t-mobile for internet, $50 a month, unlimited 5G, they provide the modem. They give a discount for vets and auto payment. Never had a problem with them, unlike Xfinity. It will probably cost you $60 - discount. |

I have multiple Roku streaming devices for my TVs and you can add the Xfinity Beta app. You can watch live TV as well as any recorded shows that you might have. You do have to be in your home location to use them. If you are out of town you do have the ability to watch anything that you might have in your recorded list. I can’t recall if I had to use my tablet to do that or if I was able to use my Roku.

We have Xfinity in TV and spend the winter up North. We can watch some things up North on the Xfinity Streaming app, but there are MANY things that we get a message stating "you must sign into your home wifi in order to watch". Since we are not on our "home wifi" at that point, we don't get to watch that particular show or channel. Network TV is fine most of the time though.

Cable
Xfinity has that app. Maybe call them and see if you stream from phone or computer to television.
