I did not try a Winegard it just looked too much like the cheap RCA to me
As it happened, I ordered a couple of AntennaCraft antennas from Solid Signal last month and also ordered a Winegard TV2900 to use with them. I also picked up an RCA 751R from a local store and hauled all of that out to the sticks for some testing. I assembled the RCA first and, of course, broke one of the spades off due to the cheap wire used. No problem, I thought, I'll just use the new Winegard. I pulled it out of its box and discovered it was IDENTICAL to the cheap "Made in China" balun that came with the RCA.

Pffft! I bought some baluns around 5 years ago that included the TV2900 and found that they were good units. Guess Wingard went cheap in the meantime.
