That's why I'm never letting go of this baby! Not unless someone offered me a truckload of money for it. Even if I have to get rid of all my other TV's, this one is staying! Even if it breaks it's staying, because the odds of me ever finding another one are incalculable.

To celebrate finding this wonderful TV set, I decided to delve into the airwaves of the past and use captured TV signals to recreate what my local channel lineup was as a kid:

Man, creating this video was just a wave of nostalgia for me. When CBET 9 with its fuzzy picture came up on that screen, it just took me back...

I used to experiment with all kinds of TV antenna setups and signal boosters to try and bring in as many distant TV stations as I could. Best I ever did was bringing in WOIO 19 from Cleveland. That only happened once, and with a simple UHF loop of all things.
