Whacky & Bo
I think you might be the only one,Whacky. We have a dish and we get PBS - I love watching the old British comedies like
Vicar of Dibley & Waiting for God.

Haven't even seen an antenna in years! It looks like everybody is on cable here, or else has a dish...unless these lines people hang their laundry on are really antennas...
, and a pat to Bo...

Whacky,
I really question "digital tv." I mean, it's WORST than it used to be before it went digital. How about all that breaking up during a show? It makes the program look like that old Atari game "Breakout."
It was better when it was whatever-the-hell-it was before.

Looks like I'll be running out to get a digital converter too Whacky. Before you know it there will be newer and better technology to invest in once again.

Whacky...
No roof antennas for us, we are so far out in the sticks, we have to have sunshine piped in! So we are Direct TV which as you said, is already converted. I have a small digital set for the RV and it works with the old roof antenna, when you're close to a town that is.

I have satellite. I would be too frustrated with the antenna! Good luck with that one! You are saving money in the long run though! sam

we have a roof antenna, and both sides of the family laugh
at us, but we really don't watch much tv, especially in the
summer, we live for the outdoors, we will probably grew
instinct in Feb with our tv.

Before I moved from my house I bought a gold antenna. I used it to pick up FM stations. It received signals from a further distance.

It is nothing new to us. We live in in a very small town in a valley and can't get t.v. without cable. So all is the same for us. I hope you and the Wonder Dog yave a wonderful Christmas. When are you going to show us a photo? Have you and I missed it?

I was kind of concerned to because my Dad has all oldfashion TVs in his house and refuses to get either cable or Direct TV... so I had to do all the running around for him finding the different adaptors that fit the dinosaur TVs he owns. Its done now and Whacky he also complains that the DTV signal brakes off often... I thought it was just him being "old" but Iafter reading you I guess it was just me being "a brat" and not believing the poor guy... I will find out what is what on Monday... we will see :-) and yes... He does have a roof antena :-) loll Mine was taken away by Hurricane Andrew about 15 year ago :-) and I never put it back.
