Expert's Assistant chat

Customer: I purchased a 2003 Gulf Stream Sun Voyager but both TVs do not get a signal. The local teck at Grumbines could not figure it out. Both TVs go on. The main TV is all snow and you can't change the channels on either the TV itself or using the remote. The bedroom TV just lists Channel 3, Channel 4, and AUX. I have a WINGARD router Model No. VS-0503/5312, but no operator's manual. I have a WINGARD antenna but it doesn't seem to pick up any channels on either TV. There is a VCR which I hanen't had a chance to try. Any suggestions?

spankyjr1, Expert

spankyjr1 : Hi and welcome to Just answer

spankyjr1 : Did You just purchase this RV?

<span class="JA_chatAuthorName"Customer:

Yes

spankyjr1 : It sounds like the same problem I had when I bought mine,in 2003 they were analog TV's and since then they changed signal To digital,so you must by a converter or change TVs The good news is the vcr should work

spankyjr1 : The antenna should be fine I researched them and they installed both digital and analog into them so the rest of the system should still be fine

<span class="JA_chatAuthorName"Customer:

If it is as simple as buying a converter, I wonder why the local technician did not suggest that. He seemed quite knowledgeable otherwise. Is a converter needed for local channels which you get by antenna? I'll try the VCR and contact COMCAST to ask about a converter. How does a converter work in various campgrounds with cable from various providers?

spankyjr1 : It will handle everything and is installed before your router,so everything after the box will be back to analog so tv's will work.

spankyjr1 : I don't know why he probably forgot about the signal change

<span class="JA_chatAuthorName"Customer:

My local cable provider is COMCAST. Will they sell me a converter or can I go elsewhere to by one and install it myself or have someone else do it?

spankyjr1 : Any local place like best buy is probably cheapest or ebay yes you can do this yourself directions come with it

spankyjr1 : It will work with comcast

<span class="JA_chatAuthorName"Customer:

Thanks for your advice. I hope it works.

spankyjr1 : Comcast probably will not have them if they do it would be cheaper to get elsewhere

spankyjr1 : Your welcome and I know I had the same problem
