Can't get any HD channels in my new RV

Hi all,

I have an '11 TH that is supposed to have access to the HD Antenna channels, but I don't get anything from any of them. The antenna is cranked up. I've tried it with the booster button and and off. None of my TV's are picking up a signal, yet it worked like a charm on the dealer's lot!

Here's the thing. By now, with all the messing around with it I've done, I don't know which connector coming out of wall I want to be connected to. Also, is there a button I should be looking for to make this work?!!

Help me, or the TV gets it!

Our 2009 DP has a separate control box for DVD, SAT, etc. Make sure it is off. Also you have to auto tune with Cable or Air as your source on every TV everytime you hook up. Hope this helps....D

You know... Your story sounds quite familure.. Just this morning I took a fellow camper from 1 station (two channels 4-1 and 4-2) to 35 channels and got his 2nd TV working too.... HOW did I do it.. That box in the wall... I have read the owner's manual.

A group of people worked all day yesterday and all they did was waste money.

Now, the questions: There are two common types of antenna switches in motor homes and trailers.. I have a box with many buttons, He had a wall plate with just one,, Normally it has a 12 volt outlet, an antenna connector, a button and an LED,, His had a second antenna connector as well.
Before I can say more I need to know,, Which switch and have you disconnected the switch?

Then we go to step 2.

Oh, if you are in Upstate SC.. Tomorrow between church services I'll likely be shopping at Wall Mart or Aldi's in Seneca.. Other wise I will do what I can long distance.
