Convert Boss monitors to tv

I own a Georgetown 350Ts with Boss monitors over the bunks. I want to convert them to tv. Bought digitial converters for each monitor and don't seem to work very well. Have them connected to the motorhome cable system. Any ideas to make them work?

You say digital converters. Exactly what did you buy? Make and model?

OK. That box is for picking up digital broadcast signals and converting them to a composite video signal that feeds into each of the 2 monitors. When you say you have it hooked to the motorhome cable system, is that hooked to the antenna? Is there a booster button somewhere on a plate with an antenna jack on it that changes the system from cable TV input to the antenna signal? Little light will come on.Does the original TV that came with the motorhome work? You may want to try hooking some kind of antenna directly to the Boss Tuner and then the tuner directly to a monitor. That way you can rule out the wiring of the motorhome and see exactly how well this thing works.

BTW, that box will not work with a cable TV type signal.

I'll try the tv antenna. I do have the button to change from cable to antenna. That's where I've gone wrong. Thanks for the info.
