I can see a picture in my mind now that in the future there will be kids out walking with Moms/Dads and asking "Whats that funny thing hanging from the chimney".....Mom/Dad will smile wisely and say " Thats how we used to get our tv pictures" ....another era will have passed ....  |
It's frightening how fast entertainment technology is moving. I genuinely wasn't aware that analogue was being phased out until I noticed a couple of channels had gone missing! I do miss the old days of using a coathanger to get a reception on our tele - there was immense satisfaction when, after at least 5 minutes of "move it this way...put it there...move it back again...", you would absolutely nail the reception...and then the coathanger would slip or fall from where you had it positioned, and you'd be back to square one!
