[AT] atis bulletin board gone?

[Cecil Bearden]

This is my complaint.  It costs another $10/month to get the free tv 
stations that are local.  I could get them before with my regular tv with a 
small antenna.  now it takes a wire basket that must be moved about to get 
each channel.  If I put an antenna outside I run the risk of getting hit by 
lightning.  I really do not want to run an antenna wire for an antenna into 
the storm cellar tha is on top of the hill here next to my house.  It the 
tornado does not get us the lightning will with a wire running into the 
cellar.

See my point??    All these new bells and whistles and we are no better off 
than we were in 1955.....  Just more expensive, and less user friendly..
