It was 4 -5 more years before that happened and reception totally sucked unless you had an antenna about 40 feet up.

That reminds me. I have been told there is a large tv antenna in my attic. I have not seen it. I asked an electrician to remove it and he said it would take a long time to take it apart and probably was not worth the cost. I guess it isn't doing any harm.
