How to operate antenna on 2015 Salem 36BHBS?

Hi,

I'm new to the forums and not sure if this is the right place to post this or not.

I just bought a 2015 Salem 36BHBS off someone and can't for the life of me find a crank or anything that raises/lowers the TV antenna. Does anyone know how to do this on this model trailer.

Also does anyone know where I can find an owners manual specific to this trailer?

Thanks in advance!

Many of the new models have an antennae that does not crank up and down. If there is no crank directly under the antennae, then that is what you probably have.

Generally, there are no specific owners manual for a trailer.....just generic 1s.

BTW, welcome to the forum !!

Thanks for the quick reply!

Ok makes sense. So as far as I can tell I just connect the cable to the jack and just press the little on switch. Then on the TV just do a channel search?

Glad to be here

Some of the newer RV's have a antenna dome and does not raise up. It will have an amplifier on it for OTA (over the air) tv but is apparently in omnidirectional.

That should do it. Make sure your TV is setup in OTA (antennae) mode.

If that doesn't work, bring it back to the forum.
