New 2017 RPod180 TV Questions

This may be covered here somewhere, but did not find the answers to my questions. Also, couldn't find it in the "Owners Manual" (not impressed with the manual).

How does the antenna on the 2017 RPod180 work? Is this just for HDTV over the air or can you also get "regular" OTA channels? When I try the TV, I only get one "Mexican" channel that appears to be HDTV. How do I tell whether this is an HDTV channel? How do I "scan" for more channels? Can I get other than HDTV channels?

Also, not sure what the button/red light is for that is next to my coax connections inside the RPod?

Any help would be appreciated...

Make sure that booster light is on. Then go into the setup function of the TV and make sure it's setup for over the air vs cable, then scan for channels.

If you're on Facebook, I recommend joining the R-Pod Owners Group. A bunch of great and knowledgeable people there.

I don't find an "R-Pod Owner Group" on Facebook

Just an "RPod by Forest River" page. Is this what you mean?

It's officially called R-Pod Owners. It's a group in FB.
