How many areas of this country would be so remote to be off the main lines, but still close enough to pick up television?

I am also surprised, but that's not the latest 32-volt item I've seen... I was really excited when I went to All Electronics (a surplus store in LA), and found a huge pallet of REALLY NICE 10-amp digital automatic car battery chargers for $5 each, new in box, like the ones that cost about $100
... Then I saw why: They were for a 32 VDC supply. Too bad! They were really good quality Sears units. This was about 5 years ago, and the chargers were very new-styled.
Then I can also point out some new $2,000,000 houses near Los Angeles which still have to be on cesspools, since they haven't gotten around to putting a sewer in yet in 2006!
