I have two TV's in here, the one in the front room was the only one on the antenna getting two channels. I now get 8 with no static its surprising clear. It has to do with the 35 feet of extra cable wire running through the house. The cable acts as an antenna. I have a flat HD antenna taped to the front window and between the electric booster and antenna I put a splitter to the second TV.
Hey it works, maybe you're in a country area and can't get cable.
What's the difference between a crackhead and a tweaker?
The crackhead will steal your shit and bounce--the tweaker will steal your shit and then help you look for it.
Cable does not come this far out. For damn near 20 years we had satellite (remember Primestar?), finally got tired of paying almost 70 bucks a month for the bare minimum plus "local" channels.
Got rid of the dish two years ago.
Had one of those flat antennas and could sometimes get one channel from the city. But now that NASCAR has half the season on over-the-air broadcast, and missing the last two baseball World Series, I broke down and bought a super-duper RCA outside antenna, supposedly good for over a hundred miles.
I've got it twenty feet up (more than that need guy wires - I tried 30 feet) with an RCA signal booster and can get all the city channels.
I only watch the local news at 6:00, and a race if available.
My stress level went waaaay down getting rid of Fox News. I don't miss it one little bit.

My stress went down too after the constant drumbeat of news got shut off. I miss the internet most, I should get around to canceling Netflix now....

Free Tv going on 6 years over 20 channels includes the sub channels.
Saved $55 per month had 155 channels and there is nothing on.
Never looking back..... less TV = more guitar time.

I finally got around to taking the silly dish off the side of my house today. I had called the corporate headquarters to have it removed and they told me that I could do it myself but to be on the safe side I should talk to the local installer. So, I called the local installer and they wanted to charge me to remove it - I politely told them that I would remove it myself but they could come and get it. They told me that there would be a charge for that service. I politely told them that I would either cut it up, use the components for something else or take it to the recycle center before I would pay them to come and get their own property. I found out that it is not their property and thanked them.
So, I now have a satellite dish that I am wondering what to do with it. Can I make a WiFi receiver for my shop computer out of it so I get better reception in the shop? Can I use it to receive messages from aliens in space? Can I exchange the pickup coils with a microphone to listen for faint noises from the neighborhood? Can I use it with my computer to make my own radar station?
So many ideas.....

live, work, love and be all you are meant to be.
Or you could just clean it up real good and use it for a wok.
