Disclaimer: I've always been very critical of the media - lazy and uncreative "reporting".

That said - they are doing what they always do - churn out as much drama as possible with sprinkles here and there of actual useful data.

I feel bad for those people who are unable to form independent and critical thinking, but I guess that's the world we live in so nothing new and the media is just lowering it's standards to meet the lowest denominator.

Stay safe out there.
Hey Scott.....got it at Radio Shack along with the gray colored poles in the pic to the left there, which I mounted the antenna on. Eventually the winds blew so hard the pole ended up bending over and I abandoned it and now have a standard leaf antenna inside the house, which works pretty good.
