Radio/Media Center Questions

[Scouty]

Mice damaged the wiring by the refrigerator in my hybrid RV. I pulled out the frig to make repairs. The wiring to the Concertone radio, TV, AUX... is a disaster.

The Concertone is old and the TV outdated so I am basically starting over. I want to use the current surround sound speakers in the RV.

My questions are:

-Do I just replace the Concertone with something similar but later tech? (I cannot afford a new Concertone.)

-Do I go with 12 volt or 120 on the receiver and TV?

-Should I buy a 12/110 TV?

-I need to replace a broken antenna. Do I replace with the screw handle type?

I may sell the trailer for something smaller so I don't want to put a lot of money into this, but still want it nice. Also, previously the camper has been used for primitive camping so media did not matter. We have not done RV park style camping but may start that.

Thank you for your help. Also, I will have a very qualified electrician working with me.

-Do I go with 12 volt or 120 on the receiver and TV? I would go with a good 120VAC LED flatscreen and a 120VAC receiver.
