New OTA Antenna

Folks, here's a different perspective on why Winegard may have introduced this product:

The motorized version of the Sensar (MA-1000) we all know and love/hate was discontinued last year, and they're scarcer than hens' teeth. (I know because my handicapped-equipped RV has one; when the motor gave up the ghost last month, I had to search all over the country to locate one of the remaining unopened factory carton models.)

Some owners may simply be physically incapable of reaching high enough to crank either a Jack or Sensar. For those of us in that situation, this product offers some prospects -- and we'll accept a bit less capabilities in order to get at least something we can use!

I would agree with the need in 5th wheel since many cannot reach the crank because of the higher ceiling depending where the antenna was placed on the roof.
