Explaining why it was so important to get up early in the morning on Saturday for "Saturday cartoons"
Then spending half an hour playing with the "rabbit Ears" (hopefully while only the test pattern was on) and attaching tin foil balls and/or lines of tin foil from the rabbit ear antennae too different areas of the room, and why it was very important that everybody stay in their same positions while the show was on cause moving screwed up the signal.
Then explaining what a test pattern was and that TV stations turned off at night.
Also static, of the TV kind.
