3. Watch on Roku.
The best way to add new channels is from the Channel Store on your Roku player. To use Channel Search, simply scroll down to “Streaming Channels” in the main menu, and select it to enter the Channel Store.
Once in the channel store, scroll down again to find the Search Channels menu item and select it. You will then enter the familiar typing grid, and you can simply use your remote to begin typing “The Florida Channel”.
Just as with Roku Search, as soon as enough letters are recognized, your search result options will appear to the right where you can scroll over and select them.
After you select the matching result, you are now in the Channel Detail View, where you can go ahead and “Add Channel”, so that The Florida Channel will install and show up on your Home screen.
