Having cable problems in RV. TV in living room is fuzzy. TV in bedroom is clear. If we hook cable from outside directly to the TV in the living room, the TV is clear but of course no TV in bedroom. Tried different cables and switched TV thinking it was a TV problem. Nothing changed. Took cover plate off cable connection behind TV and everything looked fine. Where do we go from here? Can't find a cable diagram. Any ideas? Please help. Thanks in advance.

Check to make sure the antenna booster is turned off. I had the same problem and it was the booster being on. We only have 1 TV though.

dlooney, Howdy;

Check the connections use a 7/16ths. wrench to snug them up.

When I checked mine they were ALL loose.

My Laredo has three different jacks behind the TV. I have to plug into a different jack for the park cable, one for the antenna and one for satilite. Really crazey set up, I don't know if your's is the same way?????

Please let us know what your solution was...

maybe we might track these things or start a sub-forum just for the T.V. addicts (count me in :eek:).

Regarding the 3 connectors for different sources.

Cable splitters work both ways. A 3 out 1 in splitter will work as a 3 in 1 out. Hook all 3 source cables to the splitter and the TV to the single side connection.
