Considering an aerial with a telescopic pole, the type that clamps to the jockey wheel and extends about 3m, retails at about £30 - £40 (excuse the pun) any views on quality and reception, anything to look out for (apart from a better picture)? Although not too expensive I dont want to waste money unnecessarily, at the moment I have the tv's own aerial which generally struggles to deliver a picture worth watching.

Thanks, John.

For around the same price you can buy a good aerial and pole to clip to the awning rail which is well above the top of the caravan. I have one and it is excellent. I believe that any good accessory shop will sell them

I have just looked 0n the Towsure website and they have them.
