TV cracks up when trucks go by

Post by Dot »

We are in a CP and have noticed that the TV does a lot of that pixelating /freezing when a truck goes by? any ideas?

Dot, We have the same thing happen when the little 12v fan is on and something goes by. Do you have any other stuff turned on, like a fan or a heater or ...??

It also does it when free camping with nothing else on. But just tested your theory out and turned the fan heater off and waited for a truck and yep it still did it.

Do you have an amplifier on the TV aerial? Just for a laugh turn it off if you have one, for a bit and see.

Should have a second one general there is one in the aerial and the second would come from a power point or 12 power with a three way ( T ) one from out side and the coax to the TV :idea: :evil: :?: :D
