As a kid in the 70s I remember being the remote control:
hey change it to 13
that’s loud turn it down a touch
and jiggle the rabbit ears see if you can get rid of that snow

We used to have to walk uphill through the snow to change the channel.

yeah, but you probably only had 3 channels, so it’s not like it was that hard! ;^)

I grew up overseas, had 1 channel that was AFRTS (Armed Forces Radio and Television Service) and 2 Panamanian channels (spanish).

Watched lots of Topo Gigo and American shows dubbed in Spanish...
