These platforms carry both your local FOX affiliate and Telemundo, ensuring you can choose between the English and Spanish-language broadcasts.

Over-the-Air (OTA) TV Antenna Options

If you prefer to watch the free-to-air broadcast on a traditional television, you are in luck. Because FOX and Telemundo are major broadcast networks in the United States, you don't need a cable subscription, satellite package, or a streaming trial to watch them. A standard over-the-air (OTA) digital antenna can pick up your local affiliates completely free of charge.

Simply plug a standard digital TV antenna directly into your television set and scan for channels. If you are unsure of the exact channel, simply look up the local FOX or Telemundo affiliate in your specific zip code to find out exactly where to catch the action for free.

Because FOX and Telemundo are major local broadcast networks, their channel numbers vary depending on your TV provider and what city you live in.

The quickest way to find your exact channel number is listed below:

National Satellite Providers

If you use a satellite service, Telemundo has dedicated national channels, while FOX will map directly to your regional local affiliate.

DirecTV

Telemundo: Channel 406 (East) or Channel 407 (West)

FOX: Varies by location (usually matches your local city's over-the-air number)

Dish Network
