"Antenna Man" rakes WGBH over the coals

[Richard Chonak]

The "Antenna Man" of Bethlehem, PA usually devotes his YouTube videos to 
testing TV antennas, and rating their performance at his location in the 
Poconos.

Viewers all over the country ask him for advice, so in a video released 
July 14, he devoted an episode to explaining the FCC spectrum auction 
that led to many changes in reception.

In particular, he zeroed in on PBS stations that took big payouts to 
move to low-VHF frequencies.  The prime example, of course, is WGBH's 
move to RF channel 5, and the $218M jackpot the auction yielded for it. 
Lamenting the poorer service which the public got, he shows a list of a 
dozen or so station employees with salaries running up to $400,000 and 
beyond it.
