My old Antenna Tek antenna worked on analogue TV but is useless on a digital signal.
I need a new one for the caravan and am favouring the new Winegard Sensar which is amplified and has both the horizontal and vertical antenna in the one unit.
I have been under the understanding that directional antennas such as the Winegard (as opposed to omni-directional) give a stronger signal - though I have heard good reports on an omni called the UFO.
I don’t need advice on satellite dishes as I already have the Vast system for remote locations.
I would appreciate any reviews on the new Wingard or other antennas that are suited to caravans.

I was in
Port Neill ( Eyre Peninsula) South Australia & there I found out you must be able to rotate your
TV antenna from vertical to horizontal.
There people in the caravan park with both Saturn & Wineguard who could not get TV reception.
I was advised to go Jaycar Electronics to purchase a
TV antenna and I have never had trouble getting reception except for a few spots in the Northern Territory.
The Jaycar antenna was around the $130 mark but I lucky I got it for $79 on a special and it comes with a booster
Cheers
