Our Jayco has the wynguard, have bought the wingman for it but may not be able to fit it as it comes down really close to A/C. Unless I can swap the antenna head to the opposite side. fingers crossed.
Wynguard TV antenna?
- Thread starter pgapes
- Start date
I wish I had that problem right now, the next 15 hours are going to be an eternity!
does anyone know if you can swap the antenna head to face the opposite way? had a quick look and it doesn't look as simple as i thought, any tips?
Can you "maybe" turn the whole unit around, eg remove it from the roof and turn it around.
Hi Matty,
Just a query.
Could you please advise which bracket you've sourced that fits into the roof locking clip. We're looking at getting the travellers mate aerial and are trying to determine the best set up options for our van when it finally arrives.
Look fwd to hearing from you soon.
Cheers,
Pete

@Racer the booster should power any TV outlets in the van.
I have the Wineguard antenna and have found it fantastic.
It is designed for both VHF (mind you nearly all VHF transmissions have now ceased in Australia for the government digital dividend) and UHF and for both horizontal and vertical
I do find however it's almost useless unless the booster is switched on.
I also check out surrounding homes/caravans to see which way they are pointed as it's a pretty good guide.

@Bellbirdweb - Almost useless is an understatement. No booster no signal.
Our TV points are not wired correctly, only the central wire is connected and not the shield. We bypass them and use a cable from antenna to TV. We don't have a Wynguard but use one of these http://www.caravantvantenna.net.au/hw-dt81.
My opinion: I don't think the Sphere TV's are a particularly good brand

That would make sense. I'll try by linking the booster port back into the outside antenna inlet then tv plugged into one of the non working ports.
Mine was the same but the wires weren't hooked up properly all worked after I sorted them out.
I also had to swap the wires there is a diagram in manually none of the wires are labeled. Use a multimeter to check. Although cable from roof was stuffed.
We also have a wine guard aerial and have put on the wingman attachment. It works perfect now. We bought it from eBay...
