RE: The Antenna Dance: A Gen X Survivor’s Guide to Analog Television
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
We had a separate box for the rotor on our antenna. It didn't do it for you automatically, you had to line the two up. So we had permanent marker marks on the rotor box that indicated where it needed to be for each channel. My dad had put up a 30 foot tower for his CB antenna, so we eventually put the TV antenna up there and on clear mornings you could get channels from as far away as Detroit and Jackson.

Now I do think about, I believe we had the same. Switching station on the TV, then turn the dial of the rotor in the correct position. That was also the time that the news actually was news. No the news is the recap of what we did read during the day.
Haha yes, that is very true!
