Hi,

Santa brought me a neat 7" LCD Color TV for my 87 Westy. It replaces
a circa 1985 B/W portable TV/AM/FM unit that we've used for waaaaay
too long. The new unit can be "permanently" mounted on a wall or any
other flat surface, so it can be tucked up and out of the way when
not needed (as opposed to the old portable which took up 1/2 the
space on the floor cabinet next to the fridge.

The LCD TV has an adapter for cable, DVD and game players. However,
the telescoping antenna is not exactly efficient in pulling in
signals. So, I guess I need to find some sort of TV antenna for the
Westy (perhaps an amplified one?).

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.
