cheetahdavie Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Cleaning the roof of my M`home and noted that the Status 530 aerial had two small metal "rods" at the rear corners of its triangular shape. Surprise..[for me anyway.].these proved to be telescopic arms[aerials]that pulled out..maybe for better reception?. The problem is..do I travel about with a ladder/get a rear fitted ladder..or horse muck in my shoes?? [missus on my shoulders?] Short [?] of longer legs.. how do I open these [aerials]when in some far flung camping park/field..? have i missed a trick..are they.. motorised/infra red/bluetooth operated..or just there to look pretty on the status aerial. I will buy the best solution a pint!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebishbus Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Hi. The telescopic rods are for old analoge TV,or FM radio reception. Just pull them out about 6", then forget them. ;-) Brian B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
