That being said, I believe homeowners in TV have a responsibility to make sure their antennas aren't an eyesore. That is why mine is in the attic, which works just fine. There is one on someone's house on the third or fourth hole of the Marsh Bend golf course that looks like it was put up by someone who was half in the bag. Belongs on a double-wide.
