Has anybody replaced their Roadstar 1500 Antennas with something different or better? Owners of the newer models with the Sensar looking antennas how are they working for you? Does anybody happen to know the new brand, model and info on the new type for future upgrade reference?

While at the factory last week, I asked about the new antenna, I was told they have had more complaints on the new than the old.. that said, the Roadstar doesn't seem to pick up very well. I have considered changing it out for a real, adjustable, pointable antenna, but it won't be real easy or real pretty.. Not that it can't be done, and in fact I have already worked through the how, just that we watch very little TV, and can't at this time justify the bother. Many just carry a portable satellite dish of one kind or another.
