YouTube TV when traveling:
https://support.google.com/youtubetv.../7193651?hl=en

Our experience traveling is in accordance with the info shown in the above link. For example in southern coastal Georgia we got a Welcome to the Jacksonville viewing area even though our "Home area" remained the Boston area.

When at home we had set the WMUR evening news and the NH Chronicle to record each session. Then when on travel they can be viewed once the live session is over. We were not able to watch them live when in another viewing area.

We have cable in MA (Fios) as well as NH (Spectrum). We are seriously considering YouTubeTV, but the past post gives me pause. Are plan was to sign up in Boston area and then view it in NH when we are there. Now I am confused about this out of. viewing area comment above. Anyone with actual experience like my setup?

Default U tube tv

We also made the switch to U tube tv. For $50 month we can stream television any where we have digital signal. They allow 3 devices at once so great for families that may be in different locations. ie.our daughter while she is at college. We cancelled our dish service at $125 month which was only good at our home in Vermont. Basically the exact channels maybe a little more and better quality. To answer tummymans question, you log on by mobile device and you get the package for your location. Mainly the only difference I notice from Vt to Nh is local news. Which I think is an awesome option. Check out there site they offer free trial. If/when Comcast comes into the lakes region we will be able to do the same with our broadband service. Until then it’s Comcast in Vt and ABB in NH.

YouTube TV has a place to enter a zip code and inform you of the local stations available there. Alton and gilford New Hampshire are in the Boston area

You should have no problem.

I'm in southern NH and my TV viewing area is considered the Boston market area. When I'm at the lake, I see the same channels as I do at home. It works perfectly and this is the main reason I went away from Hulu and switched to YouTube TV.

Default is there an internet alternative in Moultonborough

I am all for ditching Spectrum Cable and going with YouTube TV - sounds like it has all the channels I want/need. Thanks for the good info about this in previous posts. My question regards alternatives to Internet. For people who have switched to Internet over the phone line, what has your experience been in M'boro? Is it fast enough for quality streaming? Does the speed degrade significantly in the summer months? Are there any other options for Internet? Appreciate your thoughts.

Check out Consolidated:

or ask someone, in the know, at town hall, they might hint the speeds you can get with them.

Default Free TV

As I’ve posted in other related threads, it is possible to get all your “home” local channels anywhere you have internet by using a Tablo digital DVR. As long as you have local channels via antenna where you locate the Tablo, it can be streamed to any other device in your home or over the internet to anywhere. We have 40 channels via antenna at our central MA house and can record and stream recorded or live channels from there to our island house (which has 7Mbps Consolidated DSL service). We supplement that with Netflix and Hulu and all works fine at that speed.
