Not sure I understand everything here----I don't watch much TV. But---I still have the old TVs--2 of them--and use the converter box that gets me all the channels I can stand every where I go. Not 60 but I do get 20 usually here in the East....I don't understand the other things you mention in the system.
ferndaleflyer,
Well Sir, you're half way there in understanding some of what I explained in our system. By that I mean, you have an "analog" TV which, requires the "Digital Converter Box" in order to receive the channels the way they're broadcasted today. But, in RVs, and, pop antennas like the "Batwing" or the "Jack", most folks would get almost nothing in reception unless the signal that the antenna, which ever one you have, is "BOOSTED" by a built in amplifier that, requires 12V in order to work correctly.
The 12V must be "injected" into that cable that leads to/from the antenna. Once the 12V is inserted into that cable, the antennas built in amplifier can do it's job in boosting the signal that it receives over the air. Once that's done, and, the antenna is pointed in the correct direction then the TV will optimum chance of getting/receiving channels.
The "Multi-switch" box that I mentioned is simply a "receiving/distribution" box that, has multiple inputs like, ANTENNA IN, CABLE IN, SATELLITE IN, VCR/DVD IN, and then on the output side has, TV-1, TV-2 etc. And, you have a bunch of switches on the front to push to select what you want that is going to be sent to your TV(s). This allows for INDEPENDANCE in folks watching more than one TV in a coach. The person up front can watch what's being received by the pop up antenna like the Batwing and, the person in back can watch any of the other choices. Hope this helps some.
