TV Antenna Question

New owner of a used 2016 Flagstaff.

I am receiving over the air reception in the living room via the batwing antenna. The picture is crystal clear on the living room tv.

I am not receiving any signal in the bedroom or bunkhouse from the roof Winegard batwing antenna.

Is this how these trailers are setup, or is there an issue? I assumed that the antenna would service all the TVs in the unit.

Any help would be appreciated.

Start removing the plate with the coax connector for the TV that works and check the connections there. Quite often these rigs are daisy chained between televisions.

Yes, the bat wing should feed all televisions.

Do you have two coax connections on the wall under the TV? If so, did you try both? they may be mislabeled.

Did you remember to change the TV settings to OTA reception?

Did you turn on the booster to see if it made a difference?

I've seen the booster make a difference between TVs. Don't know why.
