No, it has multiple buttons that show cable, antenna, and dvd for front tv, back tv, and outside tv.

The reason I ask is typically if you have a selector box for the different inputs to the tv and it was hooked up correctly it would not matter if the booster panel was on or not because each input (cable/antenna/dvd/sat/etc.) is isolated from each other and each tv has a dedicated output port. The picture I posted has the isolated inputs but unlike your panel only one output that goes to a splitter for my other tv. You should have a booster power panel somewhere as mentioned but if your switch box is interconnected correctly I don't think it matters if on or not. Just a guess. Can you post a picture of your switch panel?

Makes sense. I will post when I get back to RV storage. Thanks for the help.

With your switch box each tv should be able to tune to whatever is selected for that tv and includes antenna (which means the booster has to be on to tune to antenna mode). With mine all (both) tv's must tune to whatever is selected.

Sounds like a Magnadyne VCS-10. It is a booster for antenna. When you switch to any other input the internal booster is turned off. There are no indicator lights.
If the box is not working, you may need a new box. Amazon has them.

Sorry it’s been awhile since we have been out in the RV. That box that you posted a picture of is the exact box that I have in the RV. Does that mean the antenna booster is not the issue but possibly the box is not operating correctly?

This may help. This box essentially eliminates the need for coax splitters if there is not more than 3 TV's and allows individual TV's to watch different sources at the same time.

That’s the exact one that is in the RV right now. I wonder if it is defective. I’ll tear it out and may try to replace it to see if that’s the issue. Thanks for the assistance and advice.
