A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

No elf and safety, prime focus dishes, perfect mounting brackets vacated by the TV aerial and nothing more than an inclinometer, spanner and flat-blade screwdriver.

Worked for a TV aerial firm many years back, I wish all the TV aerials were that easy to remove, usually, rusted to hell.

You forgot to mention the portable TV and decoder, reminds me of how I started! Good old days?
