I do not miss over the air television.
|
I remember how big it was when my Dad got a Channelmaster and a booster so the antenna could be turned to get channel 13 (ITV, now Global), so we could watch Oilers hockey once a week (maybe twice on the rare occasion CBC ran the Oilers on HNIC). Cutting edge when we got a 27" TV with a remote! You had to get your info from a short highlight package on the tail end of the news, read a paper, subscribe to Hockey News (at minimum a week behind once it arrived). Those were the days!
30 channel cable was like Nirvana after that. Jaysus I'm old....😂😂

I still remember the 4-channel days...and the fact that they only played a select number of Oilers games on TV each year. There were lots you had to listen on the radio to.
It does make you feel old.

CTV was 2-3
CBC was 4-5
Access was 9
French CBC was for the odd Habs' game
ITV was 13
Dad used to lie on the floor and change the channel with his toes because we didn't have a remote, but the wood panel TV had a BIG keypad. The time lag on updates was incredible. You had no idea what was happening in non-Oilers / televised games until intermission or Sports Night came on and you couldn't get updated stats until the Tuesday paper... which was GLORIOUS.
Please do not feed the bears. Feeding the bears creates a dependent population unable to survive on their own. Bears.
