I think ideally you would look for houses big enough to keep stuff that was no longer needed; old farmsteads, close enough to a city to have TV reception early, can be promising, as can the nicer homes of the 60's/70's with a garage & some rooms that weren't often used. It's not unusual for an old console to get moved to a basement or upstairs bedroom & then it's too much trouble for anybody to ever get rid of it (especially as they get older).

A farmer friend of mine, now deceased, had saved most of the radios & TV sets he ever owned. As his kids moved out he just packed their bedrooms with stuff instead of tossing it.
