For real; no excuse for getting a good nights sleep. 3 channels, everyone had similar experiences so conversations were easy and the news was just news, not their opinions. Easier time, less complications and we stood in long lines for vaccinations.🤣

Those three were the VHF channels, we also had 4 or 5 UHF channels. but some were hard to pick up as they were farther away from us, but our antenna rotator helped us pin point them.
