Though some channels share a name with their cable- and standard broadcast-based counterparts, most are "mobile" versions, with special time-shifted show lineups built around non-traditional peak viewership times.

Because FLO TV service is concentrated around metropolitan areas, I expected inconsistent service during parts of my journey, but reception was a constant issue throughout the trip, even when holding the device up near a window.
In my tests, I also had trouble getting a signal at the PCMag.

Service was most consistent when walking down the street in Manhattan, but even then images occasionally appeared pixelated.
In the end, I wound up testing two additional Personal Televisions with identical results. As expected, the Samsung Mythic was also unable to receive a signal in my test areas, but with the Personal Television's much-larger footprint, I was hoping that it would at least include a more powerful internal antenna.
