New Shamrock 233s 2013

[jfguenet]

Hi guys i just bought my first Shamrock 233s 2013 and got it today and I did not explore everything yet. Ive found this forum tonight and i had a question about the antenna on the roof for the tv. Do you know if it's an old antenna or a new one that are able to catch hd program ?

I did not check a lot yet. I can't wait to go camping with it will be better than my coleman utha 2002

Thanks all for your help

Hello, not sure about your antenna but welcome to the forum from Wv.

No such thing as a HD antenna.
My 2007 23SS has a crank up batwing antenna and I get HD shows.
It's the tv that makes it HD, not the antenna.
You can use rabbit ear antennas to get HD tv.

Your 2013 probably has the batwing antenna.
Look for a crank in the ceiling.

Get a tv antenna app and grab the dial above the crank and rotate it to rotate the batwing.
I'm sure there are videos on the Internet to watch.

You will need to do the channel scan to find the channels in the area you are camping. You will .also need to rotate the antenna to get the strongest signal

The booster green light should be on for over the air channels and off when connected to cable TV. I rescan for channels after switching from cable or antenna to the other.

Ok thanks all for your tips I'll try this later

Calling the storage compartment a vault threw me for a second.:what:
My 23SS has a similar compartment.
I keep my propane tree, toilet flush wand, stuff for dumping the holding tanks, our horseshoe set and a few other odds and ends there.
I access one end from inside and the other end from the outside compartment door.

Sorry lol I'm French thanks for the info

Don't know about the '13 model but I've never been impressed with the reception of over the air digital in my '15 anyway. Reception depends on where you camp. We like the mountains so not so good. It will be a "basic" antenna anyway unless someone upgraded it prior to selling it to you. There upgrades if you want to explore them on this forum.

Tip - If you ever hook up to cable make sure you look behind the tv for an amplifier button and light. Off for cable. On for TV.

Happy Camping.

I use the vault in the back to hold my 1"x6"x4' boards for leveling. They wont get lost back in the corner. I also have another door someone gave me that I still plan to get installed on the other side so that I can utilize that space more and access areas behind the shower.

Yes they should have put 2 doors in the back it would have been a lot better like that
