Just wondering what aerials most people use in/on their Eriba and where they mount them

We have recently bought an Avtex suction mounted aerial to power our Avtex TV. We have a white dimple finish so this sticks onto the outside of a window or onto the grp roof. It has a built in amplifier and we are impressed with the reception quality. I believe they cost about £35.
When in France we use a Snipe 2 self seeking satellite dish which is effective down about as far as the Dordogne. We have also used this in the UK if we know TV reception is poor.
I also carry a nice long co-axial lead as some sites we've visited have an aerial outlet on the power bollards.

I use a pole mounted aerial which attaches to the jockey wheel. I use mainly caravan club sites so most of the time they have a TV connection on the EHU Ballard.

I have a tripod and custom made bracket for a satellite dish from many many years ago but it’s really good as long as there’s no trees etc in the way. I was thinking of sorting something on the aerial side as a back-up for those occasions when trees etc are in the way

Mine's a short telescopic one, on a swivel mount on the top of the Pure One Mi radio. It folds away along the back when not in use.

I was wondering how the Avtex STH3000 compares with the Vision Plus Image 620 4G Digital Directional TV Aerial, any one have any previous experience on a comparison. i gather if you have the Avtex tv it powers there own brand aerial but how they compare i haven't a clue apart from the Avtex would just stick on your window but you would imagine rightly or wrongly that the Vision plus one on top of a pole clamped to your jockey wheel would be better but vastly bulkier for a tiny caravan?

I currently have the Avtex aerial and get good reception. It is compact and easy to set up. Many moons ago I had a Vision on a mast. I sold it as I got fed up of setting it up.
