I have a 2015 Forest River Cherokee Grey Wolf that has a flying saucer on a pole type antenna. Inside the entry door the TV connects to the coax adapter and has a button, green light and a protruding cylinder hole in the black plate. The tv works great and gets about 100 the local ota channels. The bedroom has just a normal coax connector and does not have the signal booster button or led on the cover plate. The TV in the bedroom gets ZERO ota channels. Does anyone have documentation for the antenna? I don't see documentation for this antenna on forestriverinc.help. From what I understand the signal booster may be built into the antenna. I am wondering why the bedroom doesn't have a signal booster on the outlet cover. I also am wondering how this is wired up, I thought maybe the cabin tv coax outlet worked for both but sadly it does not. Any help or info would be appreciated.

I think this or this may the antenna.

Edit: Well this manual seems to be close since page 4 looks like the outlet cover.

My Wildcat has a signal booster button ONLY on the plate near the bedroom TV. That button boosts the signal for all TVs including the living room and the outside coax. I assume you redid the channel scan for the bedroom TV.
Edit: my antenna is the older batwing variety.
 
Moved thread from the General Tech and Repair section to the Appliances and Electronics sub-forum since the OP's questions are specific to Electronics and are not general tech and repair questions.

Yes I did the channel scan on the tv in the bedroom, and I moved it to the cabin and it works fine there. I think I need to take the plate out and see if the bedroom coax is disconnected.
 
So I took the jack out, it looks like the hole is a cigarette lighter outlet for running some tv I guess. I found everything connected and a 3 way splitter hooked up, not sure how that plays into this mess. I need to figure out how to the bedroom is connected and then test the wiring.
