I haven’t been able to get it OTA. Considering upgrading the antenna, but its no real guarantee, so I haven’t yet. Frustrating with this ACCn thing. We made the mistake of trialing Hulu before realizing they didn’t carry abc sports, so we had to switch to YouTube tv trial to get it.

Same here - I'm in Greenville. Tried 3 antennas from Amazon; even the 125+ miles. All were indoor though. Bought last from Best Buy and it was unable to get 13 or 7 so I returned it an picked up YouTube TV. Not sure why Hulu Live TV cannot provide local 13, but YouTube TV can provide 13.
I often wonder if outside antenna would pick-up, but Best Buy guy seemed to indicate lots of people have difficulty with 13 becauses its "other side mountain."

I'm thinking about upgrading the OTA antenna on my motorhome. I have used DISH for many seasons and tried streaming this season, but there just isn't a reliable mobile carrier that can handle the game day crowd. I guess now that ACCN is on DISH, I'll go back to that, but sometimes DISH doesn't pick up local channels (even after changing service address). Just wanting a good backup for the next ABC game.

I don't know what the problem was.....I couldn't pick put ABC on my antenna on Saturday, but I usually do. Luckily, I was smart enough to search ESPN3 (sling) and got the game!

WLOS is just a pain in the butt to pick up in the upstate despite the height of their transmitter. Everything I've read is they don't really care about the Greenville market and really have no interest making it so us antenna viewers can pick them up easily.
You can try aiming your antenna at the translator near Pickens, I'm less than 4 miles from it and have better luck getting the main transmitter though. I also spent 30 minutes on the roof using my phone to rescan to get the best signal, it still gets glitchy occasionally (happened a few few times during the game) . I can sometimes pick up the ABC station out of Charlotte but not consistently enough to save it.
