lol, we were joking about that earlier. It's up there a ways.

@Jim , will that hold up with a snow load and/or a serious wind?

@Jim if you're an iPhone/iPad user here is what I would do, and what I do:

Buy 2 x Apple TV's, one for the forward zone which plugs in where your firestick went and a second one for the bedroom TV.

With this device you can do about anything and everything. I'm not sure if you're familiar with Apple TV or not but you install apps such as YouTube, YouTube TV, Prime Video, HBO, etc. etc. and watch anything to your hearts content (subscriptions required of course).

I'm really liking YouTube TV. I suggest giving the Trial a try.

I like the Shield because it has two USB 3 ports that I have hooked thumb drive and even a 10.5 TB drive directly to the Sheild. I use one USB slot for a thumb drive for app storage and game storage so they are mostly local basically only limited by the size of the thumb drive. It has a built-in Plex that uses network storage devices or hard drives connected to one of the USB ports on the Sheild. Also, it has an AI that upscales video and I think it makes a lower res look like it is 1080P. It is really fast and easy to use. I did buy a Apple 4k but seldom use it

He may need to add a heater strip to melt snow build up?

I sure hope so! It's a good, solid, and well built tower, so it should do just fine. But to be honest, that's the first thing I thought too.

Here is a picture of what it looks like and how it's built. This is not my tower, but it's a picture of one that is exactly like the one I put up.
