TV reception in the car?
Oh yes.
Up a mountain with a nice big Group E el cheapo yagi* pointed across the Bristol channel to Huntshaw Cross or whereever when BBC2W would supplant whatever the feck I wanted to watch with something tediously sporty.
It tended to be a bit cold in the winter.
It's the one thing to be grateful for to Rupert for his satellite constellation.
The tv was a Crown b&w 5" battery mains portable.
Dear dead days beyond recall.
I wonder when I did that last, must be 20 or more years ago.
*Said yagi resides even yet in the boxroom, now completely redundant.
