Quite honestly, I have little or no recollection of ever watching TV by antenna!
But yes, this house is in a valley and reception of radio and even cell phone
signals is poor.  I understand that this was one of the first developments in
the area with all buried electrical wiring too, so it's possible that cable TV
was part of a "state-of-the-art" theme.
