Do you have 2 jacks in the back? If so try them both one is for cable and the other satellite.
Make sure the booster is of by the main TV.
Take of the jack with the booster and make sure all the connections are tight.

If you don't have 2 cable jacks, you must bypass the booster. search forum - I did the male adapter install and bypassed antenna booster and works great.

NOTE: Look carefully at back of booster. Mine had the WHITE wire as the one from the cable jack. Satellite will NOT work thru the cable jack that is the booster.

If you have not fixed it, you have separate cable/TV and Sat connectors at the convenience center. The top is Sat the bottom is for cable. The booster is only used when on antenna. inside at your ent center, the SAT connector is the one not connected to the booster/12v plug.
