Paul,
I'm saying this with a smile on my face How many channels are you getting with all of those antennas?

Thanks Jack for sharing your pictures and your family. You have a beautiful grand daughter and have made some exceptional boats. You are living a charmed life. My father has passed, but my father in-law bears a resemblance to you with the beard and all. He is also an exceptional wood worker. He has ...
