As for them not working at all, chances are the wiring in your RV was screwed up upon installation at the factory as well and that omni-direction model being junk.
Now, I'm not slamming FR as my Heartland 5'ver was also wired up completely screwed and I spend days figuring it out after I gave up on my dealership THREE TIMES after they proved they didn't have a clue how to wire up a TV antenna, either.
I live in Yuma, Arizona, where the local TV stations are broadcast from 65 miles away in El Centro, California, and my King/Jack picks them up as well as my home antenna, that has a listed range of 150 miles.
