TV Aerial Update

While Jo was at work this morning, and as I don't work on Bank Holidays, I decided to see if I could get the replacement aerial for the TV, after yesterdays disaster.
I had success at the local caravan accessories dealership, and fitted it to the jockey wheel on the front of the van to test it out...
I found the signal using my new aerial meter signal finder, and ......
BINGO! Success!
not bad considering this is the TV from our bedroom, which will be accompanying us on our various trips away in the varacan.

Time for some luxury tasks

My wife will not manage next weekend, on our shake down trip, without her TV. How would she know what happens in The Mentalist and Over the Rainbow!
And so, as all good husbands do, I am trying to make her happy by fixing the aerial cable and wires ready for the trip.
I am using an old aerial we had at our static caravan, and have no idea if it is a digital one or not, but I'll soon find out...

having cleaned out the spiders web from the internal workings, and wired up the cable....


I bought a TV signal finder this afternoon, as everyone told me this was a must with all of the moving around the country you tend to do - it supposedly saves time in finding a TV picture.

The moment of truth ...... and it's not a digital aerial - Boo! Now I need to buy a new aerial -

Nothing is ever simple is it!
