Grey Wolf antenna?

We had a Salem Lite and upgraded to larger Grey Wolf 23DB. We won’t take delivery for a week as we are out of town. I’m looking at photos all over the internet and see no mention, internal turning knob or antenna anywhere.

I know the subtle differences of these campers can make one bonkers but can someone fill me in if we have one and if not what you did to pick up HD antenna in your area.

The picture I saw showed the unit to have an omnidirectional TV antenna and there is no rotating of the antenna needed (no provisions inside). There has been a lot of disappointment in these type of antennas.

Thx. You mean people are disappointed in the omnidirectional? We have an early early digital on our boat and it’s pretty good. But I have to admit the Salem Lite adjustable one did pick up a lot of Channels on several trips. Thx.

The problem with my "plate on a stick" omni-directional antenna is it placed right next to the air conditioner. Any signals coming from the other side of the A/C are blocked. It's worthless. I would love to have my bat wing crank up from my last trailer.

Boo!

It’s amazing one sit of engineers figure out how to cram all this stuff into a small box and another set doesn’t have common sense to implement things well while sister builders have it figured out.

I have an omnidirectional antenna on my camper, and I get 29 stations at my house, and 34 at Disney Fort Wilderness. Mine works great, but if there are no stations close, it doesn't matter how good your antenna is. In Big Pine Key, FL I get 0 stations.
