I believe that none of the consumer TVs have decryption for ATSC 3.0. It's another box to be connected, and possibly connected to the internet to get updated keys.


This is the real WTF. How many times are they going to break compatibility with OTA TV? A TV purchased in 1955 could receive broadcasts for 50+ years until the digital cutover. Now I’m hearing that tvs purchased just a year or two ago can’t receive a signal without an upgrade box? It’s absurd.
