Quick question. We were on cable until today and are now using our antenna for over the air channels. Switched the tv back to "air", turned the booster back on and no channels found during the scan on either of our tv's. Any ideas? I am camped outside of Madison, GA and we got about 20 channels when camped here 2.5 weeks ago. Thanks for any help/ideas!

Also checked the jumper coax and connections, to include going up on the roof to look. Still nothing.

Do you have a switch on a router device as well?

Nope, no router or other switches.

Did you put the antenna back up? :W

For broadcast channels some televisions will scan for "air" stations as well as digital stations. Make sure that you have it set to receive the digital (DTV) signals.

Well, it works now. Other than driving about 350 miles today I have no explanation. I will go back on the roof and look for corrosion, etc when we get home. Thanks for the help!

Works, then not, then works, Sounds like flakey connection

Suspects are of course primarlly the "Roof to antenna" cable.

I should have replaced my cable when I was fixing it (not sure if I did, but dont' think so) due to age.. they don't last for ever.

I recently had the same problem. Found a crack in the cable just where it comes out of the bottom of the TV mast. I made up a new cable to go from there up to the head, cut the old cable and put on a new connector to connect to the new piece of cable. Problem solved.
