I also did not want the expense and the added setup needed for satellite so we will watch OTA when we can and it has worked out quite well.
If you have existing hardware you can mount the newest type antenna.
When I bought my RV it had a Winegard Batwing that was not working, I cleaned up all connections and tested to see if it was broken, it was,so I replaced it with a new bat wing then ran a Channel Scan I was not impressed with the amount of channels that I got. This was done in my driveway here in the south bay of So Calif about 30 miles from the transmitters, using my SensarPro.
I then went out and got a Wingman add on, that put my channel scan up to 85,but I had a clearance problem with the Wingman
So I opted to put a Jack Antenna on and my channel scan went up to 174
Cheaper too than the Winegard
I always get beat up by the techies, The debate will go on and on, but I know what works best for me,in the real world.
