More Efforts at Watching TV

[masterdrago]

What an absolute cluster. Keystone could really help us out here. Part of the problem for me was the multitude of possible connections, especially when doing a channel search - Cable/Satellite Box, Cable from the wall, Antenna. Plus, at the wall behind the tv is Sat, catv/ant. and in the bedroom an extra cable connection under the cig lighter plug on the booster. Then there is the 3 connections on the wall of the Convenience Center - sat1, sat2 and cable.

We tried to watch local tv this week from central Texas on the Wingard Razor 1 antenna. Was not able to get the thing to turn in the bedroom ceiling. Found the instructions and spent most of an hour doing the quarter turn recommended b4 trying the channel search each time.

Finally went out to discover the antenna was not getting turned. Took off the the ceiling mount to discover that the handle had broken off the 2" long black prongs attached to the antenna on the roof. Now have a reference number with Wingard. Spent the next half day discovering that the park cable will only work if I bypass the switch others have refereed to above. Also found the coax wired to CAT/TV instead of Sat. Once I got that figured out and jumped around the switch, the park cable worked fine. Now when I get a real dish satellite, I know where to hook it up. I've labelled everything but may not ever be using the Wingard again.


Sure would be nice if I could get some help from the community on how to readily add images in my replies. I've sent several emails to the commanders in chiefs, with no response. I've also looked all over the sections on the boards.
