We just had a shop remove the ancient TV requiring a converter box from our 2003 Class C MH with a new 24 in. TV. They did a great job of filling in the empty space left around the new one with wood matching the motor home and mounted the TV on a bracket to allow the TV being pulled out and turned a little. I had hoped they could replace the antennae cable which was severed on the roof. Instead they put it back together using the appropriate connector stuff.
Great; but little to no reception with it in the driveway at home. I removed the DVD player and that helped from 0 channels to 1. We used to get at least 6 or 8, same location, so something is preventing the signal from reaching the TV.
That's where your problem is.
I had trouble getting channels in and the TV guy said that the new digital signals are not as forgiving as the old analog. He suggested replacing my coax cable from booster to TV just because it was old.
That did the trick.
Also my older MH had a connection from back to front and same thing digital didn't like the connection. Ran one piece new coax and problem fixed with that.
I would focus on how/why they spliced the two together. They 'should' have replaced the entire cable. If it was an RV repair shop they know better than to splice coax cable.
My bet is that is your only problem. I'd rerun a brand new 'one piece' cable from the antenna to the booster box. That should get all your channels back.
