We Want Better TV Reception In Our Camper
by Anonymous
Rayzar AIR Antenna
We have a 25 ft camper that has a TV in it. We have an outside antenna but aren't able to get very good reception. Sometime 2 channels and other times not any. Other people seem to get more channels than that. Someone said I should have a booster but I haven't found one yet. Does anyone have any suggestions?
ANSWER: Thanks for submitting your question on our Ask An RV Question Page.
Important Update: Since I answered this question Winegard has released a brand new antenna called the Winegard Rayzar Air antenna
If you currently have a Sensar Antenna on your RV you can buy a Rayzar AIR Retrofit HD TV Antenna
The SensarPro TV Signal Strength Meter
End Of Update
I am going to assume that the TV in your RV either has a built in
that I personally use and highly recommend to bring in off the air Digital TV Signals on an older TV.If you have a Winegard Sensar Crank Up RV Antenna on your camper the first thing you should do is to install The Winegard Wingman Sensor Antenna Upgrade Attachment
on your existing antenna. The Wingman simply attaches to your existing Winegard Antenna and optimizes your antenna for off the air Digital TV Reception allowing you to pull in channels from a further distance.If after you do that and you are still not satisfied with the number of channels you receive you can also install a PCT 1-PORT BI-DIRECTIONAL HDTV AMPLIFIER
that I also highly recommend to further improve your TV's reception of Digital TV stations.If you have any questions about what I described above you should visit our Digital TV Tips For RVers Page which contains everything you need to know about RVing and TVs.
Hope this helps.
