We only got cable with channels 2-13. Basic networks, plus TBS and another Atlanta station that had lots of cartoons.

I wasn't home on the couch in 1985. I'd be surprised if I watched 100 hours of TV the whole year combined.

I was in a couple of back to back pretty difficult Navy tech schools. I didn't watch a ton of TV, but do remember watching GI Joe with the guys from C School. Shipwreck FTMFW.

2 PBS 4 ABC 5 CBS 9 can't remember 11 NBC 13 NBC (if I turned the antenna to the east rather than the west.) View Quote 2 - KUTV - NBC 4 - KTVX - ABC 5 - KSL - CBS 7 - PBS - Univ. of Utah 11 - PBS - BYU 20 UHF - KSTU - Independent Later on, 2 & 5 switched networks, so that CBS is on channel 2. and NBC on channel 5. Then KSTU moved off UHF to Channel 13 VHF, and became Fox in about 1988. Around that time, KJZZ Channel 14 came into existence owned by Larry Miller of the Utah Jazz. They eventually affiliated with PAX TV, I can't think of any others, it was pretty sparse. |

We had all of 3 channels. Only rich people had HBO and MTV lol.

When I would head over to a friend's house during High School it was always Excalibur was on HBO.

My dad somehow got a hold of a de-scrambler somewhere in the mid to late 80's. Small homemade looking box with a switch on it. Flip the switch and boom everything came it even the Playboy channel...
I always wondered how that thing worked. I bet it was stupid simple back then. I think some kids could get channels unscrambled by putting the selector between channels or something. |

We had 3 6 10 17 29 39 95 and 99, 95 was where the squiggly boobs were at.

On the weekdays, Channel 11 KTTV
Saturday mornings, I'd bounce between Channel 4 KNBC, Channel 7 KABC and Channel 9 KTLA. I was still all about the cartoons back then. No cable, though. |

I am not watching TV, I am out playing Army so you can watch TV safe and sound, or getting drunk and fucking German girls.
|

Probably somewhere in the woods smoking weed or turning wrenches on my 72 Mach I or my 66 ford short bed.
|
|
West Pac getting pussy, reruns on board that I never really watched...
|
|
Probably nothing because we couldn't get reception in the hills of KY.
|
|
In 1985 the place I was living in didn't get cable, so it was a choice of two CBS and one NBC stations
|
|
Playboy channel didn't come on till what, 5 pm I think it was?
