Antenna signal
The other day it snowed and my stations were freezing on my tv. Now I have nothing. The TV scans and sees 10 stations but none come on my tv. Just a blank tv with no signal. I went on the roof and all looks well and changed my antenna direction everywhere. Any ideas? I'm used to getting 20-30 stations everywhere I go.

Do you have one of these? See photo. The little led light (some are red and some are green) should be on.
Your problem might be loose connection anywhere between antenna and
TV. One way to tell is to take a long piece of antenna coax and connect
one end directly to the antenna and run it thru a window or door directly
to the rear of the TV. Do a scan and see what you get.
This can help eliminate the TV itself as well as the reception in your location.

If the TV scans and see 10 channels but won't display them, it sounds like a TV issue.
Have you tried a different TV?

Sorry guys disregard this post. The camp host said the large mountain behind me blocks all antenna signals and I need to get a dish🙄. First time I've had this happen

Very common in mountainous areas.

Sounds like a good time to try a book or a jigsaw puzzle?
