Cleveland 43 is transmitted on a high-VHF frequency. That means one of those square UHF antennas won’t pick the station up. An outdoor VHF antenna will work best, however, if you do not currently own or prefer not to mount a big antenna to your roof, we recommend using an indoor rabbit ears antenna.

These antennas are widely available for purchase via Amazon, Best Buy and other retailers. Installation and setup is simple and requires three steps:

  • Push menu or input on your TV remote
  • Go to Channel or TV setup
  • Select scan or auto-scan or similar

NOTE: The indoor rabbit ears antenna should be placed in the highest window in your house that faces South and then rescan your TV.

The five Cavaliers games will be available on Cleveland 43 on AT&T (Ch. 1043), COX (Ch. 1006), Spectrum (Ch. 1006) and other cable outlets throughout Northeast Ohio and select markets across the state of Ohio. Cleveland 43 can also be found on DirecTV and DISH (Ch. 43 on both).

If your cable provider is not shown above, please check your local guide for Cleveland 43.

Games will be available on both YouTube TV and Hulu Live as long as your subscription includes the local channel for Cleveland 43 or The CW.

These select games will continue to air on FanDuel Sports Network and stream on the FanDuel Sports Network app.

The Cavs broadcasting team will remain the same for these games. John Michael will continue to call play-by-play for all Cavs games on FanDuel Sports Network and the games distributed over-the-air through Gray, accompanied by analyst Brad Daugherty. Serena Winters and Cayleigh Griffin will remain as sideline reporter and co-host of Cavaliers Live, respectively.

These games will be available on League Pass, however are subject to NBA Blackout rules which include locations within 75 miles of Cleveland. It’s advised to subscribe to the digital version of League Pass, available on the NBA app.
