Old habits die hard. Some customers are spending thousands of dollars on LCD or plasma TVs and hooking them up to grandpa-style $60 antennas. Many tech geeks say that the local channels available from over-the-air high-definition signals are superior to what cable and satellite companies can offer because some compress the signal. This could degrade picture quality because some of the data is removed from the digital signal. The best part for the consumer is that the over-the-air H-D is free. Antenna prices range from $20 to $150 for indoor and outdoor versions.

Ahhh, if only DH were that naive. Think of the shoes I could buy with the money I'd be saving not ahving to pay the Dish Network HD package cable bills.
Hi Deborah,
Righty-oh then, what did you say his phone number was?!!
Thing with shoes is that they don't make very good aerials!
Keep smiling

What's next? Paying for full digital
cable to watch on a console B & W
tv?
I wonder if they're using tin foil
for better reception on those rabbit
ears!
Cheers,
Doug
Hi Doug,
Nice thoughts. We'll have to investigate those avenues of possibility!
Keep smiling
