"Honey, where's the TV?"
"It went to a farm upstate with bunnies and large fields to run around in, honey."
"This isn't fucking funny, Judge Judy is on."
The stuff in this place isn't capable of modern broadcast reception. Some of it is old enough to be mechanical television.
It's a monument to the glories of a bygone age.

Not with that attitude, it isn't
Attitude has nothing to do with it. The world has moved on, and you must move with it. Abandon that which no longer suffices in this modern hell, for it will naught but weigh you down.
I had one, from the early age. Big Bakelite knobs that made a satisfying dampened thud of every click from the sheer weight of the mechanism behind it. Wood box, golden oak maybe. Mint. Sadly I was stuck between wanting to keep it, and the moving truck was 101% full. I left it in I haul and figured it has a chance of someone else thinking it’s cool too and not just trashing it.
Don’t even think something is too old,that and the old Atari from the attic and kids are just as entertained as they were 50 years ago.
Just watched a video on the downfall of household appliances, fridges, washers, dishwashers, TVs… all for the shit can in just a few short years. Sad really.
Any television made before the digital switchover has nothing to listen to anymore.
I work with devices from that era. In order for you to reliably use that, you need to replace many things under the hood.
