A warm welcome to the Roku Community, @vaughn330!

We appreciate your post and would like to request more information about the issue you are encountering so that we can provide you with the best possible assistance. As @renojim mentioned, could you please share your location?

It's important to note that channel availability on Roku devices may vary based on location. While a Roku device is functional in any location, certain channels may not be accessible due to the discretion of the channel provider.

If this device previously worked, please try troubleshooting steps to check if it makes any difference. Follow the steps below: 

  1. Restart your Roku device: Just unplug your TV and then plug it back in.
  2. Restart your internet router, and use a mobile hotspot if needed.

Let us know if it works for you.

Best regards,
