2008 Damon Tuscany, Anyone know where the 12v power button is for the batwing antenna? I cannot find it anywhere. Thanks!

You may need to trace where the cable goes from the TV, as the power button also allows the panel to switch from off air to cable.

Not familiar with your rv but have you looked in your overhead bins above drive and passenger seats.

On our 2008 Damon, the power button on the switcher box is what powers the antennae. I've also learned you can get more range if you keep the surround sound system off while watching over the air TV. Kind of weird.

I have searched in and under every cabinet with no luck. RV is getting some work done, when I get it home I’ll check for 12v at the roof and go from there. I’ll try tracing back from the Box of Many Buttons . Thanks for the feedback.

The 12 volts comes thru the tv coax, not separate wires.

Unless I'm mistaken, your "Box of Many Buttons" should have a power button with a little red light. That power button is what turns on your antennae booster. There is no separate 12V wire going to the antennae.
