Lee,

I new I heard that "FC" reference before, I just wasn't sure, so I thought I would take the safe way out

Remember, I'm a hammer and wrench guy...., heck, I used a pair of vice grips to hold the capacitor in place while I heliarc welded those two metal things to the circuit board!

Yeah I remember this Fall when repairing the Crabhouse from Hurricane Irene damage I brought down a Chain saw, axe, crowbar, hammer, come along, and sledge hammer. My worker said "I see you brought your cabinet making tools with you today". I got a good laugh out of that one on a day when I needed one.

Ever thought of satellite? Usually u can get a deal with free equipment then pick up a used dish for TT and take the house box in TT when u camp and still have all your stations.

Jim,

The satellite approach is a good idea.., but I gave up on satellite/cable years ago. I actually watch very little TV, and the monthly costs were starting to tug on a nerve in my neck.

The digital rabbit ears on top of my TV pull in about about a dozen stations.., not to bad .

I live in an area where antenna reception is poor, unless I install antenna and rotor at about 50'. Then maintenance is an issue (I don't mind heights as long as one foot stays on the ground). So my options are satellite or cable are only viable options. With satellite I can take it with me.
