The digital cable system requires a television with a QAM tuner. You must check ... the-air digital TV transition do not include a QAM tuner, be sure to verify the specifications from the external tuner

My 2017 Vegas 25.2 has the basic TVs by seike (or some name like that) and they all work fine with over the air reception. I have not tried them on a cable system so I do not know if they have the QAM tuner but I have heard some people say that their very basic TVs do not.

You should be getting something over the air even with a very basic TV antenna (they can be very small now because the over the air TV signals are using higher frequencies than in the old days (10 years ago or so). Take your home tv out to the RV to check your antenna amplifier and it's antenna viabilities.
