#100HappyDays - Day 38 - World Cup viewing sorted.

My many requests regarding where to watch the World Cup (soccer) had so far only yielded non-specific results - if any result at all.  "There will be lots of places showing it" was about as good as I got. No idea where specifically, or which matches, or with commentary in what language.

Eventually one of the staff here suggested buying a TV tuner and antenna. I knew from my earlier raspberry pi experiments that our host's TV/PC monitor had a tuner built in. Just needed an antenna. Our friendly electrician heard my plea, and went off to the shop to buy one.

Expecting a small "bunny-ears" antenna, imagine my surprise to see him rigging up a massive bamboo pole to mount a much larger external antenna on!

Now have two free-to-air channels showing the games in the comfort of my own (borrowed) living room.

Price - 150,000 rupiah, or a bit under $AUD15.
