Yes. If anything there's been a bit of a rebirth in antenna sales as people
start hearing about free over-the-air (ATSC) HDTV.

(Speaking of HDTV... Fry's is advertisiting ATSC-NTSC converters for $59,
coming very close to the $49 I was predicting a while or so ago... Joerg will
be pleased. :-) )

I saw two models at Wal-Mart for $49 each. Magnavox and some other
name I don't know. That comes even closer.
