Nice video! The "father" of residential TVRO looks more like a product of the 1960s counter culture revolution, :lol: but he was nevertheless a genius in his field.

The world could use more geniuses like this, but unfortunately, big business always steps in and monopolizes their inventions without due compensation. This has the effect of discouraging other creative inventors.
