Cable? You got that with and antenna and it was 2 - 13 on VHF and 14 - 83 UHF.
How about the "tennarotor"?<a href="http://www.youtube.com/v/HIB-J44nu8g&hl=en&fs=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="bbc_link bbc_flash_disabled new_win">http://www.youtube.com/v/HIB-J44nu8g&hl=en&fs=1</a>

Everyone got 2 -13; not everyone got 14 - 83. You either had to have a newer antenna or have a second one on the stack.

The custom Conversion Vans of the late 70's and early 80's were always a trip
My parent bought a 77' dodge conversion van right off the show room floor, I bought it off my mom for my first car.
16 with a van with a fridge and a bed in the back.....rolling party

You forgot to add that the remote had a 100 foot cable attached to it. -

We had no remote for our cable. But we had this strange sliding channel changer. We got all the Seattle channels, Vancouver and Victoria, BC area channels. We also got KTVU from Oakland, later replaced by WTCG Atlanta (later known as WTBS). We also got a Portland channel and Showtime. That was about it. But it was cool to have cable because the Canadian channels often had the same shows as the American channels. So we could watch them at a different time since VCR's were not common or in existence then.
