I came across an interesting site that has OTA TV antennas, SW antennas, and interesting vintage photos of antennas, radios, etc. A nice mix of the retro and modern. They also sell TV antennas. If you Google Godar USA you'll find their site. Their shortwave antenna looks interesting.
 
I think I have seen this site once before. A very basic website, but you get the impression it's a real engineer that runs the company, not a bunch of marketing folks. I also think it's quaint that they sell VCRs.

I think those dates for BetaMax production are way off. Sony stuck with the format longer than that.
 
I remember Betamax being touted as superior to other VHS formats. Kind of miss going to the local video shop for tapes. We had a place called Video Jones in Stroudsburg, PA that had videos for rent. Placed smelled of popcorn because they'd pop it for customers. Anyone remember their favorite video store?

Advocates of a losing format always insist it was better.
 
Teens that work at McDonald's couldn't belive what a VCR was it was so funny, then they call a N.E.S video game a NES.
 
Beta unquestionably had better PQ and less stress on the tape.

I think VHS won because it had longer time, enough for a football game (who'd want to watch it later?); and porn.

When the Porn industry settled on VHS, it was the death knell for BetaMax.

I remember 78 rpm records also 16 rpm records.
