Inverter. Because of the digital transition, does my 12 volt receptacle need to be re wired? The inverter is one that goes into the cigarette lighter and there is a 110 plug on the end. Then it works fine. Help?
I have a similar set. It sounds like yours simply has a problem with its DC power supply. The digital transition had no impact on your set's power supply circuitry.
A more important question might be, is your set digital, or are you using a converter (which as far as I know, can only be powered by 110 vac in the U.S.)? Of course, that's secondary if your set won't even power up on 12 volts. Once it does, though, a TV antenna that regularly moves around presents some unique challenges to a digital TV receiver or converter.
