    Sorry cable but the is.   I know, back before everything went digital the old filters did not run up in the 900MHz. I don't know how old this boat would be to worry about this filter.

    I just replaced my sea watch 10" with a 19" antenna. I also replaced the 2006 tv with a new one. All good tv works well.

    Here's a dandy solution too, will not work underway or (supposedly) on a rocking boat:

    Did yours have any splitters hid anywhere? I don't see any on mine anywhere, I thought the stereo was tied in somewhere?

    Since my marina cut off cable tv, and over the air selection/quality is pretty bad, I popped the choice and ordered a Dish Playmaker. It only works if static, but was only $400 with the Dish controller. Setting it up at home to test it but will be great sitting on a dock at my slip or when travelling. Has wifi to stream netflix, bluetooth for headphones. Plus it is month to month, no start/stop fees!  10#, about 14" dia

    I have seen a dozen guys with similar set-ups at marinas I have visited. They work best on docks that don't have too much movement. During one play-off guys were re-routing "walkers" around a slip that had the sat dish on it LOL
