    Myself, my home internet is via mobile data. I used to get a
    couple of tv stations OTA (VHF) suitable for the evening/world
    news and the occassional primetime tv show, but I'm too far to
    pick of the nearest digital version.

    I used to be able to get a whole lot of stations OTA until they all went digital. Now I also get none OTA.

    I half-wonder if they didn't force this conversion not only to be able to
    sell licenses to part of the band to non-TV services, but also to push
    people to pay services like cable and sattelite.

    Of course, those last two are by now being replaced with streaming, but
    that was not really a thing back when this started.

    Mike

    Bye, Wilfred.

    It is quite possible I didn't get them or maybe I did and just forgot. That's what happens when you get old. Also, I think I was having issues with my board back then.
