Tune in From Anywhere with the Winegard Air 360+

For years, out in the road with my RV, I struggled with getting TV reception with the old batwing style. You had to crank it up, you had to remember it was up. I did have a few times where, at least one time I can remember, that I forgot it was up, and it went down pretty quickly after I took off. And you know, I'm probably a slow learner. I think I did it twice. So that's kind of the thing you see in the campground anymore, is antenna down, steps in, partner in, to your RV anymore, so we don't cause damage. Then we migrated to the permanent mounted ones, like you see in a lot of RVs now, that are just a small, about an eight to nine inch tall, but still have to be rotated. You still have to find the TV towers that are 'round the area, do the channel searches and all that, so it gets to be a little bit cumbersome sometimes. And you know, I don't watch a lot of TV when I go out on the road in my RV, but I definitely want to know the local news, I want to know the weather, So there's certain things that I do want to stay connected to a little bit with that. Now, Wineguard has come out with a variety of different products. You know, they started with the Wingman for the batwing, which we did videos on. You just extend the old batwing for the digital signal a little further. Now the batwing'll still get the digital signal, it's just that this will extend it further out. They went with a raiser then, we did videos on that. You could change the head into it. This is the next generation, or the newest generation of antennas for television and for wifi. It's called the Air 360+ And the reason it's called the 360+, we're gonna pull this off, is that inside here, we have a 360-degree antenna. We don't have to change it directional, anything. It will find all the TV towers around the area, and it's got about a 55 mile radius, from what they're telling me. I have not had a chance to put this on yet. We are gonna put it on one of our demo coaches out here, eventually. Now the plus in this is these three cards here, which are wifi extenders, or 4G cards. So if you get into a campground, you can get, I think on the cards here, and the wifi extender, they're talking just up to about three quarters of a mile, and you can also then do your own SIM cards. If you have Verizon or you have AT&T, you're able to add this gateway. Now, this doesn't do it automatically, we'll show you this in just a second, but that's the plus part of this. So on the unit that we have, currently it has a King. Originally it started out with a batwing, and they removed that and put a King standard antenna on that in a new position in there, ran the wire up to the front. We're going to remove that King control system, basically use the same hole that's coming in there, and we're able to get a 12-volt source for that. So what this will do is, we're just gonna mount it. It's got feet on the side, we'll use self leveling sealant like we do with just about any of the installs. We're gonna make sure it is at least 18 inches away from our air conditioners, or anything that could be in a line of sight or in the way of a transmission signal. And then we are basically gonna hook it up. I'll show you on the bottom side. Very simple. We just have a coax cable that's going to connect to this, and it's going to bring our power inside, and our coax signal, then, will go back to the distribution center. Basically, we have an entertainment distribution center, so you can go off of the antenna, you can go off of satellite, and so forth. Then we're gonna run these down the inside of the coach through the hole that's in there, because we're gonna add... What's called the gateway. Now, we could add this to the inside. They do have, let's see that wire there. And in the instructions, you see these feet here, that this could actually slide in this, connect in here. But the reason I don't want to do that is, this is a wifi extender, this is my signal. I don't want it up outside. Plus, if I'm gonna have to put a SIM card in anywhere, change that out, then I don't have to crawl up on the roof. So the best thing to do would be to take and just use the existing hole that we've got that King already up on the inside, we've got a hole that's coming down for the handle on the inside of it. We're gonna mount our mounting brackets to the inside of the ceiling area. We are gonna bring our three wires, then, and these are color-coded. And according to the instructions, we're gonna go in, and we've got port number two here, port number four, and port number five. And those are color-coded according to this one. Just hook this up, this then gets mounted to the ceiling, nice clean fit inside, and I got a wifi extender. I can do the SIM card for AT&T or Verizon. And the nice thing about it, too, is I can have, I can purchase the 4G option through Wineguard. They have programs available, and I can do it on a month to month basis. So if I'm only gonna go out one month at a time, I have different affordable plans on how much data I need according to gaming and stuff, if that's your idea of roughing it, but it really helps to extend the connectivity. The Air 360+ 360-degree antenna, do up to 55 feet, wifi extender or 4G, so you can go on the road and not miss anything.
