Hi Gary, love the video and I think I will order the same one as I hate our batwing just as much as you did.
Thanks Bob! Merry Christmas to You Pearl and Tinker!
We rarely watch live TV but just today I watched part of a football game outside while working on a few projects. I have the 360 antenna and it seems to work good enough every time. 😁
I have to admit I am vey impressed, love it!
Hi Gary, think you for your timely video and info. I just order mine.
Glad the timing is good, sorry to hear your batwing was ripped off the roof. Was it in the down position?
@@RVLIVINGLIFE It was not ripped off and still works but I can't turn the direction that it is aimed.
@@CowboyBikerAdventures Oh ok, I misunderstood our previous conversation. Sorry for that. Glad it did not cause and roof damage.
@@RVLIVINGLIFE No damage.
Hey Gary, we still have the bat wing on our coach but never use it. I have thought about changing it several times but it has not made it to the top of the list yet. Enjoyed the video.
We don't watch a lot of TV either. We do have a Shaw dish that is the same as the "Dish TV" ones here. But It is paused. With so many over the air channels and Amazon Prime and Netflix it seems silly to use it. Removing the Batwing is step two in clearing space for another solar panel in the future and the frustration of using the batwing moved it higher on the todo list. I like doing projects in small chunks lol.
Great video, Gary. Merry Christmas to you and ,Carol, and your entire family. We are glad we have become friends. Pet Lexi for us,lol! >Merton 😎👌✌️
Happy holidays! I really enjoy you live videos. Kinda just like being there. Have a great trip to AZ!
Thanks for the video Gary. I am going to order one of these antennas... broke off our omni-directional antenna with a branch on our second trip out and never replaced it. Appreciate the DYI vids you do.
I definitely had branches in mind with this antenna upgrade. Thank you for the positive comments. If my videos are helpful to you please consider using our link in the description.
You sure won't be sorry with this upgrade - and you'll never forget to lower it before you leave the campsite!
Right, an awesome upgrade that also removed an item from the departure checklist.
It has no range and rusts .
It is true, I hated the batwing!
I have this same piece of junk. What a waste
The best time I had with the bat wing was when the last screws holding it to the base seised and i rocked it back and forth to snap it off! Lol
