TV reception

i agree with notso. even at home i had to buy from dicksmith a booster that plugs into a powerpoint for one of our tvs. we just could not get reception in that one room, anywhere else is fine. i had a van antenna and ended up selling it as i found a small household antenna was all i ever needed. i just recently change vans and this one came with a simple pvc type antenna and when i tried that out a few weks back it worked just great where i was. i also would recommend plugging direct into tv from antenna where possible, even if its just to check reception. if money is no object i am sure you will get plenty of suggestions here. your location and even where you are in a van park etc can sometimes effect your reception compared to a neighbouring vans....

You can check the impedance level of the 'through the wall' connection of the van. My guy said it knock the signal down heaps (forget the numbers). The difference between putting the antenna lead though the window, into a signal booster (240v) and then the TV was 1. Van - broken signal or no signal and 2. Window etc - all channels.
Have been using it on the road through QLD, NT and WA and I get as many channels as those with the rotating self seeking antennas.
My antenna is the simple white bar (Wanderer?).
I also had the wire on the antenna replaced with a heavy duty one.
