I remember when we had to sit and look at the same old cave drawings every night.

OK, how bout this. I can remember being in about 5th grade in Casa Grande, AZ about 1973 and a new kid moved in the neighborhood from Bakersfield, California and he was telling us about this deal they had out there where you got your TV from a wire in the wall and you didn't need an antennae. Best of all, he said, was the fact that you got 20 channels.

No one believed him.


Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

Yup, sign off and sign on in the morning, I also remember when the colored stripes went away and they started playing the radar loop from 11pm till 5am.
Stoners loved to sit and watch the blue colored radar loop while listening to their albums or late night radio.

Yes I remember that and our first Tv in 1956. It was huge with a small screen. B/W . Most stations when they went off left a high pitched hum or just static sound till they signed back on.

It's 10 o'clock do you know where your children are?

It was my job to lay in front of the TV and turn the channel selector when dad wanted a different channel. But you had to be careful and not go too fast or it would strip out the selector and the. You were in trouble. Later "The Clicker" came along. I can remember going with dad to Radio Shack with a box full of vacuum tubes to check them on a machine then buy a new one of the bad one. Head back home and replace it in the back of the TV. You had to not touch the big green round thing in the corner with the dust attached to it like hair. Dad said it would light you up like a Christmas tree.

When the Chattanooga stations signed off at night they played the video of John Wayne talking about how he loved America before the national anthem. I need to look for that on YouTube

We got 4 channels. I vividly remember going outside to turn the antenna and dad hollering "WHOA! Back a little. WHOA!"

Idk why, but I was always bare footed. Rain, shine, snow. Didn't matter.

I worked in the ETV studio at The University of Alabama with only B&W cameras to pay my way through school. After I graduated; I sold them their first color studio cameras.

Remember it well. Along with 3 channels and PBS. Sometimes had to adjust the antenna by turning it just right.
