TV Not Getting Any Channels

I have just replaced my antenna booster. However, when I scan for channels, I still am not getting any channels at all. Do you have any suggestions what I should do or if I am doing something wrong? It is a fixed antenna.

could be that the antenna is not even hooked up inside the ceiling somewhere. Or the tv is not set in the correct setting . If you have an antenna on the roof of your house , take the tv over to your home and try with house antenna to see if the tv is ok. Might as well eliminate that before you start to take antenna off trailer roof....sound like it is probably a Jensen antenna.

Preacherman116,

Which Cross Roads trailer do you have? That would help determining what your TV cable set up is like. On my 2013 CR Sunset Trail Reserve 32 fifth wheel, the TV in the living room area can rotate to the outside of the trailer on a swivel system. Built into the wall above the above the swivel space is an antenna flip switch that converts from cable hookup to exterior TV antenna. If the antenna switch is not set correctly, you won't receive any signals.

Check the circuits with a volt meter and do a continuity test.

Reading your other posts about your TV connection, it looks like you figured out what was wrong.

Check the "source", ie, hdmi 1, hdmi 2, cable, antenna etc. Seems like every tv is different.

Hey. I also have a 2012 CrossRoads 29SS. It has a swivel TV and no place to put a cable box. If you figured it out, can you show me in a picture? Thanks, Ty Daniels
