I have two tvs on my coach. Both are new and have been working fine with the antenna setting. The coach has been in storage for a month and we picked it up to get a few things straight before a trip. I tried to get local stations on the front tv to no avail. It keep saying no signal. Went to the back tv and it says the same. Nothing has changed. Anyone have a suggestion for what to check. Gets sat on both tvs fine. I am not somewhere that I can check the cable. Both tvs always pick up the antenna channels even with searching. HELP

Make sure the antenna booster switch is turned on, and the antenna is aimed in the correct direction!

do you have a splinter box in the front? Maybe a button not pushed in all the way, or the antenna cable coming in the back came loose or got damaged somehow. Maybe get on roof and make sure connections all good.

U did switch the TV to the correct setting ? I will assume.
When I use cable verses FTA I have to change the input signal location on my TV via the remote.your TV uses a different input,s for antenna verses cable verses satilite

There is something else to check when all else fails. Up on the roof where the coax cable comes up through the roof there is probably a cover plate on the roof that's covering the coax cable. If you have this setup, romove the decor caulking and all the screws that hold it to the roof. What I found on mine is underneath the plate is a coax cable coupling fitting. Take it apart. I'll bet you that it's all rusted inside. This is what I found on my rig a few years ago. After I replaced the coupler/ clean the cable center wire I got more signals then I ever got at the house before. What I did was, run a new cable from the switcher box right to the antenna itself. The new cable fixed the problem with the signals. Then I just figured I'd replace the whole cable from the antenna righ to the switcher box, that's when I found the rusted fitting underneath this roof plate. Just something else to try.
