change cable TV from park to Antenna

I have a freedom elite and I don't know how to change to antenna. It works fine on cable. Thanks, Ted

Check in the area of the cable in hook up of the coach, there should be a small button that is an antenna booster. Push that in and a small green light should go on giving you antenna reception.

Once you've turned the booster "on", green light lit, "on" for antenna "off" for cable/satellite, you will have to go to the tv settings menu & switch from cable to antenna & scan the channels, also will have to scan the channels every time you move or which from different sources.

Don't forget you have to change the TV to antenna (it is in the TV setup menu) and do a search for antenna channels every time you switch from cable. This is because the cable channels are on a different frequency than the over-the-air channels and the TV needs to know what you want.

In my case there is also a video selector box that selects the source for each TV - that also needs to change to ANT or CABLE as appropriate...
(in addition to changing the individual TV's and rescanning channels)
