Are you selecting the Live TV tile/input from the Home Screen? (the same area where the app tiles are located.)

If you select the LiveTV from the left side menu, those are LiveTV streaming channels (no OTA/antenna).

Your OTA/antenna channels will not show if you selecting the LiveTV from the left side menu.

You need to select the LiveTV input tile from the Home Screen.  (from this tile, you can watch both your OTA/antenna and Roku Live TV Streaming channels).

May be easier to Rename the LiveTV input to keep it clearer for you.

1. Go to Settings/TV Inputs/[Live TV]/Rename

2. Rename this Live TV input to Antenna TV.

3. From this same menu you can also choose to show/hide streaming channels from this Input. (under Manage channels).

4. Now when you want to want your OTA/antenna, just select the "Antenna TV" tile from your Home Screen.
