Jack Antenna
Took the OEM antenna off and replaced it with the new Jack Antenna. Read nothing but great reviews about it, so I bought one. I received 12 channels before with the old antenna, now with the new Jack ...

Should work fine, Scott. Same scenario I had before I swapped out the old CRT TV for the new LED 37" up front. Finally got tired of too many remotes and too many devices. I bought the Jack before making the swap, and had it wired just as you've described...cable coming down from antenna on roof into the Jack powerpack, out of the powerpack into my signal/tv switchbox.
Good luck, and let us know. Btw...don't know what kind of "cover" you're under, but you may not even need to move the coach to test it.

Jim,
Thanks for the encouragement. Glad to know I'm not the only one who's had odd problems. At least I call it an odd problem anyway. It seems kind of odd that, King Controls, the maker/marketer of the Jack antenna, does not acknowledge that, for those that have Digital converters, that no matter what power insertion is used, either the one in the Multi-switch box, a wall mounted one, or, the one supplied with Jack unit, a Digital Converter Box WILL NOT let the 12V pass through it, to energize the booster in any antenna, much less a new Jack.
But, as long as there's no damage to the Digital converter box because the flow of 12V power is now coming from the antenna end, going into the DCB via "In from Antenna" cable port, vs the way it would normally, via "Out to TV" cable port, then I'm hoping all is going to be well.
