I have gotten tired of satellite and its expense for what we get out of it. The new Imagine 2800BH has the Winegard batwing. I have not been that happy with the batwing as we are more than 60 miles from some of the local stations.
Before buying another add-on to improve the bat wing, I want to see if there was anything better. I see Winegard is selling the Rayzar and considering adding a Yagi to my batwing is $25, it might make sense to install Rayzar for $50.
What has stopped me is the lack of any real information showing me the Rayzar is any better than a batwing with the yagi, or how the Rayzar might be better.
I had the Jack on my old trailer but I cannot tell if it was any better than the batwing.
Everything I seeing is too vague to tell what might be a waste of time or money.
There is not an RV antenna available that works better than the Batwing with the Wingman add-on including other antennas made by Winegard. If you are that far out your may need to get an antenna designed for a home and mount it on a pole beside, or attached to, the RV. There are some larger UHF style antennas that are not too big and will give you most of the TV channels. At that distance, the higher you can get the antenna the better chance you have at reception as well.
