RV Television Antenna Options
Our 2012 fiver came with the standard Winegard crank up antenna. At some point I saw where folks were saying good things about the King Jack replacement head and got one. It did improve reception some...

FOR MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE ONLY, you cannot beat a Batwing with the Wingman, or the new all-in-one. The Jack or any other antenna simply does not compare. This is especially true on VHF where the Jack just plain sucks (technical term). The TV repack is now complete and stations that participated are now getting their new assignments, and there is an excellent possibility that VHF will again be filled as it was 30 years ago, so VHF performance is again important for an antenna.
Do you have to crank it? YEP... Theres no substitute for height when it comes to RF. If you don't want to crank an antenna, or don't have the room on the roof, buy a Jack. But anyone that tells you their new Jack outperforms their old Batwing, had a broken antenna cuz it just ain't true.
