That is a great idea.

We only have and old fashioned TV antennea. We have the HDTV box to go along for Analog TV's and we get three PBS stations. FREE! We get Gloria Bonesteele and F&P and also Nancy Sews. So it is free if you have the right equipment.

They moved the Fons & Porter Show and the ScrapBooking show to @ 11 a.m. eastern which means folks that work, like me, can't watch it any more. And, no, I don't have one of those DVR 'thingies' with my satellite and neither of the PBS stations in the Jacksonville, FL area have sewing shows that I've found.
