I've been spending a lot of time moving my antenna around to get HD signals 'cause I'm too cheap to pay for HD cable.
- hobbs 19y agoIf you can get a good signal, never get HD cable, unless you NEED Discovery HD or HBO HD. The over-the-air signal is much less compressed than HD cable. If you're an A/V geek, you can really notice the difference in the macroblocking.

- gills 19y agoI use a compass and a map when I go backpacking. No batteries/satellites required.
