Sometimes I watch for the nostalgia of seeing local commercials.

Kinda wild that we can pick up nearly 80 channels in high definition for free yet people still pay for subscription services.

Anyone in #DC ditch #Comcast #Xfinity #cable and rely on an #antenna for local #broadcast TV? What stations are you able to pick up? What kind of antenna do you use?

(Looking to cut the cord but anxious.)

Hey lovely folk of #amateurradio, I am planing to make a field portable #yagi/ #moxon for maybe up to 20 meter. I am considering several design choices and came by with the idea of vertical moxons hung from fishing poles. I wonder how this would compare to horizontal and higher hung #antenna. Interwebs gave me no answer. I aim to make it simple and compact and vertical idea is good for that goal but I want this to be my efficient antenna so... Any ideas?

New #hamradio #antenna. built from an #umbrella! Receiving (appropriately) the National Weather Service WX Radio. Best SWR are the #weather frequencies, strangely enough!
