Ever have something just pop up and invade your thoughts?
The crazy thing is that this TV 'theme' popped into my head last evening, so I had to see if 'history' could be inclusive. Yup.... I can remember getting 'the kit', and the show was a "must watch" on Saturday mornings.... Some memories fade, others can still be found.

I don't recall Winky Dink, but I have heard of it. Early TVs emitted X-rays...

We'd sit on the floor up close to the TV and wave our hands for a strobe effect.

My dad built a 70-foot tall antenna mast with a rotator. We could usually get 3 or 4 stations, more or less.
