TEEVEE

In 1969 we lived in a place called Highland Pines, AZ. Elevation 7,800. Population: 16 (four in my family). Literally the sticks. Dead smack in the middle of a National Forest. School bus stop was about 10 miles down the mountain.

TEEVEE? We had one! Got one channel. Two if we turned the antenna - which was mounted on a 30 foot pole outside a window, in the right direction on a clear day or night.

We could pick up our neighbors CB on our TV's UHF.
