One of three problems.
1. Somewhere in your RV there is an antenna amplifier. This must be turned off for cable TV to work.
2. You have an old, analog television and there is a digital converter box in the line. These were low cost to free and were necessary if the television could not receive Digital TV signals. You need to bypass this box if you are using Cable TV.
3. The outside jack or cabling to the television has become compromised. This is easy to troubleshoot. Just run coax cable from the campground connection to the input on your television.
When scanning for the cable channels, the mode on the TV should be cable TV.
If the park's cable provider changed to an all digital format, the park would know and tell you that you needed a cable box. That will not be the issue you are facing.
