When we traveled I also carried a regular TV array antenna for those areas whne TV signals were marginal
Antenna was mounted on a 5' pipe that I would set up in flag pole mounts I had on ladder.
I would then connect coax cable from antenna to 'cable' connection on rig.
Then turn 'booster' switch OFF (DC voltage interferes----only needed for OTA antenna)
I have my Directv hooked up to the cable input.
I don't want to hook up a splitter at cable input because I've heard the satellite won't pass through a splitter, but also because I use a SD sat box and have it hooked to tv through coax on channel 3. And I want sat on channel 3 and all the OTA channels on their own. So I don't have to do rescans all the time. Kind of screwy.
Does that make sense?
