Has anyone tried using a digital box with analog TV antenna (GloMar)? My 2001 340 is now without TV and was wondering if anyone has made the attempt.
 
Any antenna, whether digital or analog will work. I understand that a digital antenna should work better.
 
Bill, give a look see at this; might be the answer to your needs.

No such thing as a digital antenna as far as I know.
 
Yes there are digital antenna's. Just Google it.

I second that....A dock buddy is using that setup with grat results.
 
If you are using a 12 volt TV or a dual voltage mobile set, it will no longer work even with a converter. It will still work dockside with a cable connection. There is no conversion available for the mobile sets.

That's something I've never heard. Why?
 
I'm not a tech, s I can't tell you why, but that was what was disseminated over our local station before the switch, and from my experience it's true. Don't know the techie why.
