It was like Christmas morning

Since we bought the Cougar in 2017, I've been frustrated with the TV reception (or lack there of). Depending on location, we were normally able to get 2-6 channels, sometimes.

So last week, I decided to make some changes. I replaced the Wineguard Sensar IV with a King Jack. After making the switch I turned on the TV, did a scan and there were 33 channels.

To be fair, I had to change the cable connector at the antenna end, which no-doubt made a difference.

I found a channel that shows three episodes of Hill Street Blues in a row on Saturday night. This afternoon I had the Packers game on as we were packing up to leave. I was in hog heaven!

Willie, we're all glad for you (Well, no, a few disgruntled Raiders fans probably are not), but to be fair to Wineguard, I'm betting it was the connections that made the difference. We've had that same antenna on three other RV's and have always gotten 15-40 channels or more except when in Buena Vista, Colorado in the mountains.
Regardless, you're a happy camper now (literally).
