Description: I took this photo in about 1955 in Eugene, Oregon (USA). I think we got the set in 1953. At first there was only a fuzzy UHF station 100 miles away (in Portland); later there was a local VHF station. The cables in the wall are for the UHF and VHF antennas which were on the same 40-foot mast on the roof.
