Antenna vs Cable

2021 Grey Wolf 26RR

I can get some channels with my antenna but I want to use the cable tv provided by the campground. Is there a way to get the tv to recognize the cable signal. It scans for the antenna channels but not cable. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

On the OSD (On Screen Display) on your tv you have to change the source of the channels from antenna (air) to cable and then select auto scan and it should pull what channels are available. Each TV is different but generally the same. you can check your tv owner's manual for the exact process.

You may also need to make sure the antenna booster is off. I think ours is like that.

Look for something like this. Usually found very close to the main TV.
Maybe inside a cupboard. Should be a small button the the faceplate.
Light on for booster for antenna.
Light off for cable television connection.

Yep, mine looks like that right next to/behind the main television.
