Any camping people out there or people who stay in there lorry. Help needed

[sarah23]

I am going to a comp in a few weeks and i'm sleeping over for 2 nights.

I want to take a TV with me (portable one from home) no TV in lorry or aerial, but as i have never done this before what sort of aerial would i need and do i need a free view box as well. Any camping people out there do you know what i need or anybody that uses a TV in their lorry.

Any help very much appreciated.
Thanks

1stly are you allowed to say where you are going..........................!!

Do you have access to a generator?

Is ariel not built in the TV - if so you may need one of those plug in ones

What channels are you wanting - will depend on what set up you need

You could always hire a generator..........

Using a hook up.

No built in aerial as it a 12" flat screen TV not really a portable one.

Saturday BBC1 for casualty

I have just a normal, seperate aerial and a 12V (I think) flat screen tv. It runs off my leisure battery if I don't have a hook up but you need an isolater so it doesn't drain it or something. If a hook up, then you just plug them in like at home. Depends on the signal where you are really. You can also buy booster aerials which are not expensive at all.

Mithras Thanks for that (my evenings are not looking so boring now). Does it have to be an out door aerial or can it be an indoor aerial.

I just use a normal indoor tv aerial. But my horsebox has a glass fibre roof that doesn't block signals.
