HD antenna
A friend of mine was bragging about the number of channels (~14) he was getting with the new antenna for HD TV's. it cost about $40 at Best Buy. Has anyone tried it on an RV? Im thinking it may work ...

I echo your words. The antenna makers rely on the "ignorance is bliss" theory by selling "HD" antennas to uninformed customers. The same thing happened when color TV came on, "color" TV antennas were sold.
Thank you for the support... I am a bit too young to be "Market aware" when the switch to Color TV happened. Though I do remember our familys first color set (hooked it to the old antenna) and I do know many TV antennas made a big thing of COLOR.
Oh by the way, To the O/P. your friend who is bragging about 14...
With my full blown batwing (Batwing, Wingman, Sensar pro) Where I'm parked Well last time I looked at the search window it said 23 services found and it was still adding... 25-30 is about normal here in Carolina Landing "Preserve". I can get nearly all of them with the basic batwing.
I need the upgrades when I am in the Saint Clair preserve.
This is, in fact, something of a problem for me.. You see with all those stations I sometimes get 3 shows on at the same time I want to watch.. DVRs snagged two of them Friday evening and I watched Last Man Standing live, but the DVRs (290 hours worth) are filling up and I had to move all the movies Ive recorded off to the HD on this laptop (Which at half a terabyte has the room for 'em) I can stream 'em back to the Replay's later. (Humm, perhaps when Im at St. Clair).
