The VanTenna requires no setting up
With all of this in mind , your choice of antenna becomes quite crucial . It ’ s one of the reasons why the VanTenna is so appealing . While some directional caravan antennas can receive a horizontal and vertical signal , others only receive a horizontal signal . ‘ Traditional ’ omni-directional antennas can also only receive a horizontal signal . The VanTenna , however , requires no setting changes or adjustment . Whether the signal is horizontal or vertical , it is designed to receive it without input from the user .
ALL DIRECTIONS , ALL THE TIME
So you ’ ve set-up your van and it ’ s time to put the telly on and unwind for the evening . Better raise the antenna but – oh no ! – you ’ ve left your signal finder at home . That ’ s okay , you think to yourself , I ’ ll just check the direction my caravanning neighbours have pointed their antennas and do the same . But there really has to be a better way , right ?
In fact , there is . The VanTenna is omni-directional , meaning that there is no need to point your antenna in the direction of the nearest broadcast tower . There is also no need to wind it up or down , or worry about it being damaged in strong winds . Further , there are no delicate moving parts involved that could be damaged while travelling on corrugated roads .
