Exterior TV

I am trying to switch to exterior TV for the SUPER BOWL We have a 2015 Thor Ace 29.2. Tried the manual and YouTube.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Does it turn on? Or is that your problem? Have you checked the batteries in the remote?

Since its a one-time thing:
Find which tv works, extend the cable with a $6 length of cable and attach it to your outside tv.

No reason to chase what might not even be there.
If it ever was hooked to whatever you want to use as input(cable,ota,satellite,internet) The 15 things which could be keeping it from working aren't worth the chase when facing a time constraint.

Well he's got a whole week to hunt the problem, whatever it may be, down.

Not enough detail in the question. If it comes on, check the source on the TV. You should find that in the TV settings.

Game is being carried on CBS. You should be able to access that almost anywhere. Just turn on the antenna booster and run a channel scan on the TV.

Brady versus Mahomes?
I think it's going to be a "track meet": the Team that gets the football last; will win.
Hopefully by like 56-54... a real defensive struggle!

Enjoy, but please remember to keep the volume down. A lot of people who camp, especially dry camping out in the wilderness, do so to get away from the noise and enjoy the solitude of the outdoors.

I don't think there is anything to do. Turn the tv on and turn the antenna till you get a good picture, that's what I do on mine or I hook up the dish and watch that. In your walls there should be a splitter for all the TV's to work off the antenna. There could be a disconnected coax in the cabinet just below the antenna behind the wall plate

If it’s like my 27.2, you have 3 tv’s and hence 3 remotes. Make sure all batteries are good. You should be able to power it on. There also is a manual on, usually at the bottom of the screen. Remember, if like mine, they are 120v. Also, in the cabinet with the dvd etc. is a control module with several inputs for the tv’s and dvd. Additionally there is a button that will allow you to change from antenna to cable. The tv and power are probably fine.

So are you saying you can take on Mahomes and win ? or Brady?

What do you mean by switch to another tv?
Each of ours has its own remote or cell app for that tv.
I dont believe you can use an inside tv remote for the outside tv.
We can run our 3 tvs on all different channels at the same time because of separate units.

That's true we have 4 tv's with 4 of the same remotes. We just have to be careful where we point them. Each tv is separate but they are all connected to the antenna. Take a pair of rabbit ears and use that as your antenna if you don't get anything your source is probably set to the wrong input. If mine is set to hdmi 1 I will get antenna, if it's set to anything else I will get nothing
