What Roku device do you have? Is it a Roku TV connected to an antenna, or a Roku player? Roku players do not offer over the air live TV. There are some channels that you can use to get local TV stations, but you have to pay (subscribe) to them. The Roku Channel has a link to "Live TV", but that will not be your local stations.

Yes, a Roku tv connect to an anntenna and my wifi. I hit Home ---> Live TV ---> listing of all Roku Channels ---> click on one (all) ---> nothing comes on.
All was fine yesterday and then suddenly the channels would not come on.

Thanks for that. Are you able to see and watch OTA stations, and it's just the IPTV stations that aren't loading? Does other channels (such as Prime Video, Netflix, Vudu, etc.) work, meaning your Internet connection is working OK?
If you're not getting any local OTA stations, you might need to rescan the TV tuner. Over the years stations have been changing the RF frequency used, even though they still use their old analog channel number in their name/logo. For example, here in the Seattle area, our ABC station is "KOMO Channel 4", but they're actually now on RF channel 30. NBC is "KING Channel 5", but on RF 25, and CBS "KIRO Channel 7" is RF 23. And these have changed more than once since the switchover to ATSC broadcasting.
