Batwing antenna and SensarPro

I've never really tried OTA since we use the TravLer in this new to us rig. I bought a SensarPro to have OTA as a back up. I can confirm that I am using the coax from the batwing to the sensar. I have direct hooked up the TV(s) from the Sensar. No splitters etc.

The Sensar finds 5 or 6 stations with a signal strength in the 60s. That tells me that the batwing and Sensar are functioning. BUT, neither TV finds any stations on a scan for ether TV or DTV. I know how to do it. It scans and says it couldn't find anything. I tried it on the main TV with a short coax. I tried it on the bedroom TV with a longer piece of coax direct from the Sensar to the TV.

What am I missing? Thanks in advance.
  • Have you tried rotating the antenna? Guess which way OTA transmitter is.
  • First check for a small button on a wall plate for powering the amplifier in the antenna head. Power it on.
    Next go to your TV menu. Look for input and set to antenna, not cable. Rerun station scan.
    This should work, but check your TV owner's manual
