Thanks Jonathan, but I was hoping you would offer to install and I could watch.
Appreciate the help, Spectrum, for some reason, seems to think they can charge whatever they want and folks like myself have always accepted. I moved my daughter to Antenna TV over a year ago, she gets a lot of pixelating but she has an interior antenna, hopefully the exterior model will help.
