Is there a reason we can listen to FM radio on our phones but can't watch TV?

This shyt is simple and y'all are really letting go over your heads :mjlol: I'm not talking about streaming services.


If I plug in my headphone jack I can tune and listen to local radio stations. I'm not on Spotify, or iHeartRadio, etc. My has literally phone become an FM radio :dwillhuh:


Why can't we do this with local television? Those signals are being broadcasted 24/7 so how come, in 2019, we aren't able to receive them on your smartphones? :dwillhuh:


Are y'all following me here or is somebody about to say something about Disney+ coming? :dwillhuh:

It's been a long ass time since I was in school but as I recall, to create a radio you just need 3 simple circuit components and an antenna. I feel like reception of a video signal probably requires more bandwidth and shyt and isn't as simple as just having an LRC circuit in your phone like a radio.

I mainly listen to audio dramas or classical music on the radio during work, running and etc. I can barely watch TV unless there is something on that caught my interest.

Yeah I feel you. I use to put nikkas up on game years ago on here but a lot of them joint end up getting overflooded with traffic or shut down, So I'm reluctant now. If OP ain't got a doo doo flint stones phone I could get him watching live 4k tv in a few moments.
Please don't think all of us old bruh's aren't with it....my setup is beautiful and I have access to everything.....have the old school picture in picture and can pull up 4 screens on my tv while watching sports, movies, etc...
