I had that too.

Before that, there use to be a pay porn site that came on at night and was broadcasted over a UHF channel. You needed a special antenna and box for it. lol

Had a satellite dish. Enjoyed many a night of American XXXtasy channel, while my parents were asleep.

too young to be involved in this thread, but i feel bad for you folks that had to deal with that

One thing I also did was I had a VCR in my room so I would buy skin flicks from these porn catalogues that came in the mail for my older brother I stole them. You would get like 3 or 4 porn flicks on one VHS for like $20 plus shipping. All you had to do was sign and say you were 18 and send *********** lol. Released many of times to those videos

occasional titty between the lines. uh huh !

Don't feel too bad, seems like the old(er) times were the best times...there is no excitement/risk at looking at porn on demand...

Anyone remember trading pics in aol chat rooms, lmfao I probably had pedos trying to get at me without even realizing it

Yes, those were the good ole days of porn!...Back when most women had big natural

and hairy bushes between their legs and most men had penises the size of cucumbers!...I couldn't wait til Saturday mornings back in the 70's and 80's growing up as a kid...that is when dad and mom went to go do grocery shopping for the week!...you could always count on 3 - 4 hours minimum....usually wouldn't be back home until mid afternoon!...that is when I would raid dad's porn stash!....

A friend of mine owned a bar. Took action also. But also owned a part of a new company his friend owned. His friend went from living house to house to a millionaire. He came across this oriental feller that was able to take apart one of the original boxes and recreate one. Big Glenn, as he was known, then threw the guy a large number for his work and started a pirate box company. Different areas needed different pirate boxes to decode the cable signal. Cops would come into the bar buying boxes and selling them while working different blocks and neighborhoods. They picked up 2 to 3 hundo a box over cost for themselves and were selling multiple boxes a day. This was in the 80's. They also advertised openly about their business nationally. Eventually Time/Warner went after anyone and everyone selling these boxes and that's all history.

Exactly right, I/O....I think a lot of us "in the know" had those decoder boxes and/or knew of contacts and where to get them!...So bottom line, those scrambled porn channels were never an issue if you had the box.

The three or so seconds that Cheryl Ladd would appear in a bikini on the opening of Charlie's Angels was pure adolescent bliss.
