I know Porky's was a long time ago. I don't remember much about it.
Your antenna looks nice. I'll have to rig something like that up.
MacGyver was hilarious. It was quite a popular TV show but most people were laughing their arces off. Gilligan's Island took the top spot when I was a kid.

When I was 5 I was obsessed with trying to be like MacGyver!
He made a gun out of a muffler once, and when I was little I wanted to stop and pick up mufflers off the side of the road. My mom never did let me get one!

I think I missed that episode. I didn't see MacGyver until after my first enlistment ended.
Now you've got big mufflers. That would still be interesting.

I can rotate the EMT in any direction, then swivel from that.
It's holding my 32" Vizio well
Ask me how I made my hi-def over the air antenna that pulls in 18 channels for $3.00! lol
Edit:
This is how far I can swivel off the pole...
Don't mind the pink panther ****.... It's temporary!

I was wondering about the four mounting screws on the back of the TV blowing the back out shaking around. Should I mount the TV from the outer edges for more support? Normally the TV hangs still.

You can find a 'Bluto' on just about every hockey team.
