The antenna has a crank inside with a spring in it. If this is designed to raise the antenna, it doesn't. It just spins as you crank on it.
Is there some secret to engaging the crank inside to lift the antenna? I just raised it by hand, once, to see if it was all there. There is a tv in the tc from the previous owner. Its a flat panel cheap one. When I ran a channel scan, several times, it finds no channels? 0 channels.
I think he said he never used the tv, he just used dvd's.
Check the manufacturing date on the back of the TV. 2008 or after thereabouts, it may have a built in digital tuner. You're not getting any signal, because the antenna is not extended. Also, check all connections.
