Can you get a picture of the rear of the tv? That will show us how the tv is wired. Also include the make and model of the tv.

When you use the cable connection, do you press the "Cable TV" button over the "Main TV" label?

Yes the cable works with the cable button pushed in on both tv's .
One thing I mention early on.
In order to play a DVD movie. The receiver on the left side has to be on video.
Maybe there is something going on behind the tv to the receiver..
I'm going to remove the selector and verify that all cables are were they are suppose to be.
Once again.
Thank you for all the input.

All that proves is that the Cable is connected via the A/V switch box, since the OTA is not working it does not tell you where it is connected. It SHOULD also go through the A/V switch, but COULD go directly to the TV or through the Sony Audio video control center. You have to see the backs of the devices to determine how it is connected. Of course start with the Sony, it is lighter so it is easier to get that picture. Also include a pic of the back of the switch box.

TV selectors switches
Three years ago I purchased an 05 Diplomat and was unable to get any channels on the original RCA tv's. I could get a picture if hooked up to cable or using the dvd player, I was told to purchase a digital antenna and that would do the trick. I did and still nothing. Tired of the issue, I removed both televisions and replaced them with VIZIO smart tv's. Also did some cabinet work and cut down and recessed the front tv area, NO MORE HEAD BANGING. The new tv's receive signals everywhere we go. My advise is to purchase new tv's and I would ensure that they are SMART. Go luck.

The antennas did not change with digital. Tv tuners did change when the big switch to digital years ago.
And yeah they sell antennas better suited for the digital signal. But you can still get a signal with an old antenna.
If the tv is not digital then nothing will make that tuner work. Remember the old digital boxes they were giving away during the switch.
To the OP. I would suggest connecting a new tv from the output of the switch box. Then see if it picks up anything.

The receiver mod# is DE 597.
Here is a photo of the selector switch. (Not a very good one. Cables are short.

To determine if your TV is the problem.
Disconnect cable labeled Front TV.
Use a longer Cable to connect to a known good TV that will receive digital channels.
Then see if it will work.
If that fixes the problem then you either need to swap out the TV or try to locate a digital tuner box to put in line with it.
2009-2011 was the switch over to Digital. Your TV is most likely 2003 and will not recieve the new signal.

Exactly. It's a CRT (tube) TV. It is not digital.
