Antennas Direct is hitting the road again for our 2016 TV Liberation Bus Tour! If you know anything about us, we can’t stay still for too long. We get extreme wanderlust, a desire to take our bus and get out of town, visit the hidden gems of the United States. So we took that itch […]
Last month we embarked on a multicity Broadcast TV Liberation Tour, taking our shiny Antennas Direct bus back on the road to bring American’s the free local television they deserve. More than 2,000 Americans received free TV antennas at our tour stops in Albuquerque, Denver, Rapid City, Sioux Falls and Oklahoma City. With the use […]
You know what we hate? Seeing people throw away their money to the cable companies. Beyond money, people feel trapped by the cable companies, feeling like they have to pay for cable to get the shows they want. They feel like they are hostages in this abusive relationship with the cable company. Since 2010, we have […]
Independence Day means a lot to us here at Antennas Direct. Not only because we are proud to be Americans, but also because we consider ourselves to be liberators. Installing an antenna is not unlike signing a Declaration of Television Independence. It means you are no longer a victim of the tyranny from cable television. […]
We had a blast on the 2010 Antennas Direct bus tour antenna giveaway. We go to work with some great television stations and meet some awesome and grateful antenna recipients.
Making our fourth stop on the 2010 Bus Tour, we visited the beautiful town of Tallahassee. Teaming up with local station WTXL we handed out antennas to the public. Adding to the excitement of the day, we were able to be part of the station’s first airing of their new morning show. We were able […]
One stop wasn’t enough for the great people of Arkansas, so we gave the people what they wanted, two stops in two days. Starting with an overwhelming crowd in Fort Smith at the KFSM studios, we handed out more that $30,000 in antennas. We had anticipated only handing out 200 antennas, but because of demand […]
Huntsville may be known for its rocket technology, but on August 24 its citizens were thinking about something else, over-the-air TV antennas. Kicking off the 2010 Unemployment Bus Tour, we teamed up with local station WAFF, Cumulus Radio and the Decatur Mall team for a hugely successful antenna giveaway. With lines that were estimated at […]
A brisk pre-dawn remote in South East Texas and at 5:45am we were ready for our closeup. Katie was sucessful in hypnotizing the staff at KBMT into extolling the virtues of Cleastream antennas as the greatest thing since Hot Pockets. We went live 5 times that morning and a Clearstream 2 sat on the anchor […]
Holy Katie Anastasia Tewillager Brady in a prom dress! Whats going on here? When we arrived at the station around 10am, there were already 100 people waiting for us; did we get the time wrong? The station’s receptionist said some had been camping out since 7am. It turns out that the station, in an earlier […]
A rainy Saturday afternoon, but still over 400 people turned out for a chance to win a Clearstream antenna. KSLA was our host and offered advice and guidance for local viewers. Ch12 KSLA will be broadcasting their DTV signal on Ch17 after the transition, so there was a great deal of interest in antennas with […]
Wow! its events like this that make the whole tour worthwhile. Dave Vincent, the GM of WLOX welcomed us to the station and gave us the grand tour, explaining how the station survived Katrina and still managed to stay on the air. The Gulfport area still looks like someone took an eraser and wiped part […]
