HD Antennae overriding cable

That's OK, Bill. I understand.

Yes it does, Mr. Wizard. Over the air, cable, internet streaming, something not yet known will someday will make it easy, simple to watch TV anywhere.

This is Mr. Wizards entire statement and not just the few words you pulled out.

"problem has nothing to do with the batwing antenna or the direction of transmitting towers. This is a tv and or wiring problem"

His statement is exactly correct. I have no idea what you are taking about!

"problem has nothing to do"

Yes it does, Mr. Wizard. Over the air, cable, internet streaming, something not yet known will someday will make it easy, simple to watch TV anywhere.

did you select cable on the tv input menu for the tv signal input ?

On this LG, the only coax input is "TV". When you run the channel finder, it asks if you want to include antennae. If you select no, nothing happens. Therefore, I'm thinking the issue may be related to the TV, but wanted to see if anyone had any ideas.

With the TV on, hit MENU, Channels and you should see Channel Source. This is where you will see Antenna. Hitting Enter or using left right arrow will allow you to select Cable as the source. Then use the Find Channel selection (Scan channel?) option to get the cable channels to come in. You are correct in turning off the wall plate power supply when using cable and turn it on when using Antenna.

X2 Based on the OP, it sounds like tv is set to over-the-air and not cable.

X3 That is what I do with my LG TV

I recently purchased a 2015 KZ MXT 303. I hooked RV park cable up to the trailer last weekend, but did not get cable channels. I realized that I was getting digital channels from the antennae which I did not have extended. It is a Wineguard unit. I located an on/off switch on the coax plate. Turning this on or off did not make a difference. The TV is an LG. I could not find any setting or anything to turn off antennae. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Is this a new coach or used? If used. it's possible the wiring is no longer setup properly or you have one or more bad connections. You would need to do some investigation to find the source of the problem. I would start at the outside connection (remove the plate and see what you find) and then go inside and remove that wall plate and see if all the connections appear correct. If all appears OK you would need to test the coax connection between the cable input and the wall plate. There are so many ways that things can go wrong it can take a great deal of patience to find the actual issue.
All of this "assumes" that there is not a Cable/TV option in the TV's setup menu.
