Replacing Crank up Antenna Suggestions?
Thinking about replacing our Crank up TV Antenna with a fixed Roof Mount TV Antenna. I've seen a few on campers going down the road that looks to to stand about a foot tall. As anybody else replaced...

If I hadn't cut a hole in the wall to mount it, I would throw it away. You need to first know all the real channel #'s of what is available in the area to make it useful.
Winegard makes a new control panel which helps aim the antenna, and may boost reception a bit.
It's possible you are not using the Sensar Pro correctly as it is an extremely simple unit to use, does allow for proper pointing of the antenna, requires no knowledge of the channels #'s (you can use that option but it's not required) and adds a secondary in-line amplifier. It's the best OTA device I have ever added to my current Batwing setup.
All that's necessary is to turn it on, raise your antenna, rotate until you find the strongest available signal and do your channel scan. The gain setting only needs to be adjusted if you are getting weak signals but that's a nice option to have since nothing else would be available to boost that signal.
