Sorry guys, been away for a bit.
I like the looks of that Clearstream, it's looks impressive and I suspect would outperform the old bat wing.

It did have a Winegard III, but it's very old and the coax is shot, plus stripped gears, so I removed it and had to do some roof...

Guys, I'm in the process of rebuilding my rv and was wondering which antenna you think would be best, the King Jack or the Winegard 4?

It took me some digging but I found it. It's WTBS out of Atlanta. Looks pretty weak at 15kw. Doubt I'll be able to get that reliably. I did try it as an analog channel too with no luck. Too bad, I...

Sorry, this is DIY. I believe the HBU55 is DOA. About to try to get the HD7698P tuned in. Have to use it until I can get it back down. Those were new cables with factory ends.
