I had a horrible time convincing people that OTA didn't just
disappear.  In North Georgia, where I was living at the time, the
cable and DBS providers were actively telling people that they'd need
cable or a dish, that the days of broadcast TV as they'd known it was
over forever.

I proved the reality to my brothers by setting up temporary antennas,
and one still thought it was some sort of trick. As far as I know, he
continues to this day paying for a worse signal than he could get for
free.

Very frustrating...
