omini diretional antenna
How many have gone to the omni diretional antenna from the bat wing and been happy with the results? Thinking about making the change
Forum Discussion
About t 2 1/2 years ago we replaced a Star Trek Enterprise looking OTR antenna.
I went with two from Winegard:
1) RAYZAR Auto (Which is the one we use 99.8% of the time, while looking for local channels.) The RV Repair place I was working with, wanted an early adopter so they could get real world feedback before recommending this to other customers. Probably one of the first installed in the California, for sure the first installed by this Repair Facility. Gave me break on the cost, and did not charge labor for the install. As long as they could refer people to me for my perspective - IF IT LIKED IT.) Oh, and I do. KISS to use, and does a good job.
2) Sensar Directional - Sure for the ability to pull in more distant signals when right on the fringes, but also because we wanted a crank up to attach other antennas too for WiFi and Cellular just a bit higher up off of the roof.
No question the Sensar will pull in a signal that the RAYZAR will not. But, I've used it maybe less then 5 times for TV signal, and a few were just to play around with. (We do have DirecTV with DNS, so many times we do not bother with the OTR. But wanted it for back up. Others that depend on OTR may find the Directional Sensar to be of more use to them.
$.02 - Keep the change, and best,
