Someone asked this question in another thread and rather than answer where only a few will see I decided to start a new thread. If you know a better way please post. This is for Windows but, I imagine, is almost identical for Mac: Copy the link into the clipboard eg. http://www.bom.gov.au/vic/forecas...

As the factory model pretty much needs to be under a tv transmission tower to receive anything, has anyone fitted an after-market tv antenna to a Knaus Skywave? I would be interested in knowing the brand and effectiveness please.
