Good, But Won't Fit Signal Commander


0 out of 0 people found this review helpful.
December 03, 2012
I made the same mistake as some others, assuming my RV's antenna was a Winegard, when instead it was a look-alike Signal Commander. The Wingman could be installed on a Signal Commander only by Jerry Rigging. I installed the Winegard Sensar IV antenna head with integral amplifier, which gives a perfect fit and excellent reception when mounted to the Signal Commander mast. Both the Winegard and Signal Commander websites recommend against using different components with their products, but this installation fit exactly, performed superbly, and looked perfect. It took less than half an hour to change out the antenna head - one co-ax connector to unscrew, then reconnect, and two pins with retaining clips to remove and replace. New pins and retaining clips are packed with the Winegard Sensar IV head.

Helped to reduce noise interference


0 out of 0 people found this review helpful.
September 29, 2012
Our antenna is located near an exhaust fan and we would get noise interference on the TV whenever the fan was turned on. Figured I'd try this and see if it would remove the interference and it did! Still some noise on a couple channels with weaker signals but I'm very pleased with results. Installation was very easy with no tools required.

Add more channels


0 out of 0 people found this review helpful.
August 28, 2012
Installing the Winegard took only a few minute and we found that we could receive more channels and that the ones we did receive came in stronger. For the cost it is well worth adding it to your system.

Impressed with Winegard Wingman

August 28, 2012
After reading several reviews, the most being positive, I ordered the Wingman. When I recieved it i thought to myself. There is no way this little add-on is going to do much. Prior to having it installed I was only getting 5 over-the-air local channels. After installation I was getting 22 and all crystal clear. Amazing.

Yet another review from Camarillo, CA

I installed the Winegard Wingman on my existing Winegard antenna system. Installation couldn't be easier. There is no wiring change involved (new or modifications). The addition of the Wingman enhanced my reception greatly. I can and do recommend this item.

Easy to install

Instructions say to install with the antenna in the raised position. We turned our antenna to the side of the camper and lowered it all the way down. We were able to install it in about 5 minutes standing in the back of our pickup. We installed it while camping in a poor reception area where we couldn't watch any of the 4 channels picked up. With the Wingman, we didn't pick up any additional channels but the 3 digital channels turned crystal clear and reception on the analog channel was vastly improved. Might give this a 5-star with further use.

Something That Should Come Standard

Easy to install. Works great for something so inexpensive and simple. This helped me locate another local channel and improved reception on another one. Was glad to have weather radar that first weekend. Installed fine on a 1999 antenna.I will make sure to always have an antenna with this attachment from here on out.

What a great inexpensive add on. We just got back from a trip to an area we used to get next to no reception but now were able to pull in 14 channels crystal clear! It snapped into place without a single tool.

A Real Improvement


0 out of 0 people found this review helpful.
June 14, 2012
The Winegard Wingman is a must if you want to get the most out of your off air TV reception in the weak signal areas. The installation only take minutes and the improvement in antenna directivity reduces signal distortion due to multi-path as well as improving the gain of the antenna to help pull in the weaker signals when you are out in the boondocks. Well worth the money.

Worked ok for Me

May 22, 2012
Just recently took a trip to Gulf Shores with this product attached. On a previous trip to the same area the tv signal strength meter was in the 40 to 45 range with the wingman installed the signal strength was anywhere from the mid 80s to the low 90s. It looks like it works. It seems to work best if you use tvfool.com with your location to verify the direction the wingman needs to be pointed. I am happy with it BUT because of the antenna length now when lowering it down in travel position it has to be cocked to clear the a/c shroud but in that position it is stowed well enough to travel. So be sure to measure the area it will be mounted in for clearance......it seems to be worth it.

It was easy to install, but I see no improvement in the signal strenght. If anything. according to the signal strength meter, it's poorer.
