Shake down cruise

Greetings. We are on our first outing with our 2017 Bullet Premier 30 ripr. Can anyone tell me how to get cable channels? The off the air antenna is working. Is there an antenna switch somewhere that I can't find?

Thanks;. Jim

Welcome to the forum!!

Look for the coax connection from the TV to the wall outlet. Most likely there is a button that turns the signal booster ON/OFF. Light ON-booster ON.

Using roof antenna, booster needs to be ON, using park cable, booster needs to be OFF. When you do the channel scan on your TV, make sure it's set to CABLE.

Thanks, that is what I thought but I can't find the switch or button to push. It is not like that old crank up antennas. Still looking. I will call Keystone tomorrow.

If there is an outlet for a tv in another area, that button may be on that coax plate.

If your antenna is a Jack King, they don't have a crank, but the handle that lets you "aim" it is at the front of a plate that has a switch on the side.

Yep, no button at tv 2 either. The antenna is about a foot off the roof and looks like a flying saucer. It doesn't move.

Ok. That means it's a fixed antenna, but there should be a booster switch somewhere. Hopefully someone with the same model will see this and post. Otherwise, I hope your dealer can tell you. It should have been pointed out to you during your walk through when you picked it up.

Right next to green led there should be a little black button to turn it off or on

Welcome to the forum from Kansas City, MO! Enjoy your new rig!
Are your TV plates black/dark? Others have said the button is hard to see if they are. Maybe shine a flashlight on them to double check. They're there somewhere.

OK, we found the button. Not by the inside tv or the outside one but back in the bedroom where there is no tv. Who would have thunk!! Thanks for the replies.
Pleasant travels.
