What is Broadway?

Broadway brings TV to your iOS or Android device (see
www.pctvsystems.com for an up-to-date list of supported
devices). In addition you can record the TV program to a
connected USB mass storage device.
Broadway needs two things in order to operate:
1. A TV source for live TV – can come from an over-the-air
TV antenna (ATSC/ClearQAM transmission) or your cable
TV or satellite set top box for pay TV.
2. A connection to a network router in your home.
The connection can be wireless (Wi-Fi) or
wired (Ethernet).
When you are at home, you can watch the video signal
streamed by Broadway over a Wi-Fi connection. When you
/
travel, you need to have an Internet connection (Wi-Fi or
3G/4G) in order to receive the video signal from Broadway.
