Here is a frustrating one. Have 2 TVs. Over the air only. No satellite. Yes set for over the air at the ant/cable button. We have a Jack ant.
Upon arriving in a new area each TV, 2 of them, is scanned for available channels. The crazy thing is that one TV will drop channels when the other is turned on. The one losing the channels is the one furthest from the antenna after the splitter to feed each one.
It is almost like a water pressure system where the water will go to the closest tap from the supply the easiest if both are on.
Any techie with an idea?
I found out that all TV's are "NOT" created equal. Some have a better antenna reception circuit board. I have one TV that will pull 10 channels and when I put a different TV plugged into the same outlet and parked in the same spot can barely pull in 6 and usually drops 2 of them.
So many think it's the RV antenna when actually its the TV. I took that one TV into a TV Repair shop (yes they do still exist) and I had them replace the antenna connection circuit board. Now that TV pulls in over 18 channels off the batwing.
