Roo Family Please Advise

So finally getting to camp during football season! YEAH! However, I am hooked to the CG cable box and cannot receive cable channels. Everything I am reading refers to making sure that the antenna is "off". HOW? I have looked everywhere for a light/button to make this switch. I need advise please! (2017 Roo 24ws - Furrion TV)

Follow your TV's antenna cable to the wall. It should be plugged into something that looks like this:



The button is on the face (it's very tiny).

Some have 2 antenna cable attachments, some only have one.

I've attached some instructions.

Found it! Off course, it is a black panel in a dark box on the far side of the cable cord! Would never have found that, so THANK YOU! ... now scanning again to see if I can find channels before kickoff!

Don't forget to turn your antenna to peak your signal strength.. then scan for channels

Cable issues

FYI the input jack on the outside of my trailer was labeled backwards so if your signal is poor try moving the cable to the other jack. Make sure the connection is clean, particularly at the end from the park feed.
Enjoy the game.

Ditto. I always have to try both before I can get a good signal.
