My current roof top, though beat up by the former owner, gets excellent reception. I may be some in some kind of "honey hole" for reception, but at 40 miles from Harrisburg, PA & 40 miles from Baltimore, MD I am able to receive flawless digital signals from every station in both towns. Can that be improved on? Probably not by much. I will check your idea out though.

I want to replace a 2003 Winegard crank up antenna with the newer Sensar. Anyone know if the new will fit the existing hardware installed through the roof?

I damaged the antenna input on a 2013 Samsung 1080P 32" LED TV because I had it bolted on an expandable wall mount and made the mistake of using a short coax. My bad!! I have some experience in things electronic, courtesy of the draft board in 1968, and have always tried to repair my messes. I took the back off of the tv quite easily, and low and behold, everything there is a collection of modular wiring harnesses and circuit boards. The original coax input was easily soldered into place ( the old stuff was probably epoxy). My point in writing all of this is to point out that circuit boards in such an application are indestructible ( minus a sledge hammer ), and that there are very few manufacturers of LED displays in the world. Perhaps three or so. Whatever is in a so called made for RV TV is without a doubt the same display that is in every other TV.

I am a retired trucker. When I was in the business, I met a driver that worked for a small Caterpillar test fleet out of central Illinois, who showed me fuel mileage records that were astounding. He was running a 550 horse Cat, 10 speed tranny, and usually above 70,000 lbs gross weight. He never got in a hurry, never used his cruise control, and kept his top speed at 55 mph unless on a downgrade. His statement to me was that "you wouldn't want run with me." We will be leaving for a trip from PA into numerous favorite places in Colorado in August . It will be a lengthy trip and my first time behind the wheel of a diesel motorhome. I traveled the same routes in our 460 Ford powered 34 footer and the fuel mileage was terrible. I was not retired and therefore always in a hurry. I do know that good advice is to keep your speed down, keep your cruise control off, keep your RPMs down, stay off the accelerator on a slight rise in terrain. Let your speed drop on those slight grades. The amount of time that you lose at the end of the day will really not amount to much, and probably save a lot.
