Re: Can I access over the air channels I receive from an antenna with my roku streaming stick?

My ROKU doesn’t have a TV setup link.

    No.  Roku devices are designed to display data received over an internet stream.  They have no tuners to handle over the air signals from a TV antenna.

    Connect your antenna to the antenna jack on the TV.  You'll then have to do a channel scan on the TV so it can locate your available stations.  

    Switch your TV input back and forth between its antenna/tv setting and the HDMI port to which your Roku is connected, depending on which you want to view at the time.

      Thank you, but I have a ROKU TV, there is no option to go to antenna. It only has the ROKU remote.

        You have a Roku TV connected to a Roku streaming stick?  Or are they not connected to each other?
