Have you ever wondered how many stations you would get with a television antenna?

Here is a handy dandy tool from the Federal communication department that will tell you based on your zip code.

I was just trying to be nice because I was concerned for you. If there was a hurricane and the power went out you could get out your wind up television and still watch 'The price is right" with your box of twinkies and 2 litre coke so you could still feel normal.

I was a little surprised to see I get 7 "strong" sources.

I get a few hundred channels with Directv and only watch a very tiny fraction of them, mostly sports & news.

Cable is getting out of hand and I'm looking into antenna's again. I can stream mostly anything but the cable companies got you by the balls.

I saw one that’s sticks to the window and had I not seen it in action I’m not so sure I would believe it. It picked up the local channels.

Yeah, I'm looking at one to put on my roof or on a pole I have a great western exposure. Then i could dump my 30.00 television bill every month. Get local channels and stream the rest.
