External Antenna


Hi Guys 

The external antenna point is on the Right Hand Side of the Van and we sit outside on the Left Hand Side 

What are you doing to run lead around van 

Hope makes sense 

Cheers

G'day wombat56

The point you are referring to is most likely for connecting an antenna feed from a caravan park central antenna system into your TV.

Are you referring to the antenna "feed in" point/connector on the side of the van? I am yet to see a "feed out" connector on the side of a van.

 The older vans without the built in antennas on top were equipped with an external input on the RHS side wall. This was connected the same sort of connector near a power point mounted in a place that was suitable to stand a small TV set. Ite input connector on the ouside was the same type of connector as you have inside you house for your external antenna.

In the rare occasions that I want to watch TV outside the van I just run an extension TV lead out via the corner of a suitable fly screen.  Just lift the corner of the screen out of its track.

 

If I need to run a TV input from the CPs TV feed I do the same thing thru a window near the TV.

 

Have thought of putting in a couple of those Eye ball thru the wayy fittings but never get round to it.
