It's fun when you can get VHF skip. I remember a few times during summer getting FM and low VHF television reception from parts of FL from here in western MA. I got a channel 2 out of Miami on a Zenith 193 using only its built-in whip antenna. The sound and picture were of excellent quality--for about 30 minutes. Then it was gone, and I was once again picking up the snowy picture of closer channel 2 out of Boston. On an old Zenith roundie color I got (IIRC) channel 4 out of Panama City, FL/Dothan AL area. Co-channel can be a nuisance, but the novelty of it makes up for the inconvenience.
