Culiseta incidens
Male, brown flying insect with patterned wings and large antennae. It has a long proboscis. The female can be seen at:
Iceplant in the backyard. "Western Canada and US from Pacific Coast (Mexican border to Alaskan Panhandle) east to Saskatchewan south to northwestern Texas."
"The most common peridomestic mosquito on the West Coast, especially in urban areas, favoring container habitats. Large and easy to identify due to spotting on wings. Sometimes diapausing females enter homes to overwinter."

He he he, you'd certainly think so.
Hmmm... do you think those antennae could receive TV signals?
