Free "local" TV over Internet

I don't believe I've seen this mentioned, but locast.org is serving up streaming feeds of stations in the so-called Boston viewing area. They are a non-profit organization and operate legally under the copyright laws. As a cord-cutter (in Columbus OH), I've struggled with an attic antenna for some years. I tried locast and it works perfectly. Although it's free, they do ask for a minimum donation of $5 / month (eliminates begging screens) and I find it well-worth it. If you go to locast.org/dma you can put in your zip code to determine your eligibility for Boston stations. It works with Roku, Firestick, among others. I plan on trying it at the lake next week.
