    TV reception

    I saw somewhere that the power to the Weingard antenna has to be on but can't find where you turn it on. I get no TV reception at all

    25G, any ideas?

    I don't own a 25G, but every trailer I have owned, has a small button on/off switch next to the cable connection in the wall. There should also be a light, that will come on, when you switch it on.

    Check the coax outlet near the tv where the sat and cable connections are. There should be a small push button, when pressed a red light should come on letting you know power is being provided.

    Slightly off topic but we often camp where we don't have good reception. I recently installed an old TIVO I wasn't using anymore in our camper. I have it recording several different shows that we can then watch when "out in the sticks". I think Channelmaster makes a fairly inexpensive over the air DVR that would do the same thing. Bonus is skipping the commercials!

    We don't watch much TV when camping but it's nice to watch an old Andy Griffith show or two on a rainy day...

    Thanks all, found it!!! Turned it on and still does nothing for any over the air channels.

    I could never get anything in my other RV's as well, so it can't be just me?

    Did you run the channel search again after turning on the amplifier?

    The main cable outlet/splitter may be wired incorrectly. Mine and several others had this problem from the factory. There is a thread somewhere on this forum with a picture of how it should be wired.

    Thanks. If you can find that thread please post a link. I haven't had any luck looking myself...
