We could sometimes, by the time I was 7 or so, get 3 channels(one was PBS-educational channel). Our local NBC channel came in from a "sub tower" that was about 10 miles from us, the others came in from their original locations, 100 or more miles away...dad spent alot of money on the latest and greatest antennas back then....and the ABC and CBS channels were still fuzzy most of the time. We just accepted it- if you could kinda see what was on it was still better than nothing.
Not TV, but I get a kick these days out of riding in a vehicle with people who as soon as a radio station goes fuzzy for a second, they change the channel...and up here in our area that's pretty often if you're driving down the highway. When I was young it was just a given that distant stations(which they all were) were gonna fade in and out as you listened to them. And sometimes other stations would fade in and out on the same frequency as well...I remember lying in my bed at night in the 70's listening to KOMA from Oklahoma City(1520AM) and KVOO out of Tulsa(1170)....got 'em clear up here in northern Nebraska, came in much better at night than most anything else....WOW(I think?) out of Chicago came in pretty good sometimes too at about 940AM.
