Frank White used to teach a great class on RF, back in the day.
Sadly, I have forgotten much of what I learned, since the demand for solid off air wasn't there for so long.
Kind of fun delving back into sort of old tech. :-)
It is! I have always had an antenna for multiple reasons. One is I still like to listen to the radio (I know) especially when I am working around the house. Two its free. Three emergency situations if cable or internet becomes unavailable.
Last time I lived in CA I lived dead in the middle between Mt Wilson in La and wtf ever the towers were in the inland empire and liked stations from both areas. Had the channel master big ass antenna and a rotor and loved my TV watching and radio listening channels and stations. Same antenna in KY got me Louisville and Lexington stations, live dead in the middle of the two.
Whats old is new again.
