Basic cable here is about $12 a month, 20 channels, I think. Next rate, $30 a month, with the Disney channel etc.
NOTE: Rabbit ears are NOT for PBS. PBS uses that loop antennae [UVh?]. At least that was the case for every city I’ve been in. Rabbit ears are for broadcast channels. BTW you can put an alum. can on the top of them to get better reception.
