Wonderful!! Nothing like an old hollow-state B&W doing its thing!

Stupid DTV! Back in the 70's, I used to DX with an old 1959 vintage 19" RCA (model number escapes my memory ATM) which I rescued from the local dump and got to operating again. I'd use my 300 foot longwire shortwave antenna and commonly was able to grab skip signals from as far away as Minneapolis (I was in New Mexico then) Soon, there will be no more TVDXing when everyone switches over to digital broadcasting. The end of yet another era.
