Free TV 101 - Part I

By Ward

Who would have thought in 1960 that we would be paying for TV? What have we come to? I won’t even talk about satellite radio. In 1960 your local TV station sold antennas for about $15. You mounted them on the same pole and pointed them in two different directions to receive three or four different channels. Everyone was happy and life was a lot simpler. Today, you can subscribe to cable or satellite and receive several hundred channels for hundreds of dollars each month. What happened to free TV? Nothing --- it’s still there alive a well. When was the last time you looked?


Part 2 to come Tuesday . . .
