OK, got the first post about the test right before running out the door to the camp site. Found a basic non amplified antenna at the local ACE (not much for choice of where to shop) it did have the multiposition function. Had a looooong extension cord and took everything to the clearing. I hadn't read the post about putting it on the vehicle so just had it sitting close to the ground. No luck. Programming took longer and seemed to stay on certain channels longer but after programming finished there was still no signal. Our local Walmart has the Philips SDV5119/27 that you suggested and I can pick that up and try again this coming weekend. Hope all had a great weekend. Weather was great!
