We just brought a HC 343RL home, and there's at least one thing I missed on the PDI....where is the antenna booster? Or doesn't it have one?

Unsure what year you are talking about. But mine is located below the TV in the Living area fold down desk (on the back wall) There is a 12V cig lighter socket and a coaxial Tv connector. Left of the TV connector is a black push button which is the on/off for the amplifier.
When you press the button in. A green LED will light up. This applies power to the amplifier in the roof antenna.
If you are at a campground with cable and you hook up to the outside coaxial connector. Make sure this push button switch is off.
I have also see where the on/off switch is actually located near the crank for the antenna.
Analog and Digital over the air broadcast will benefit from the amplifier. Now if you have yours on and you still have older Tube type TV's then you will need a DTV converter box to receive the signal. Even if you have a 100watt amplifier you will not be able to receive digital signals on an older analog TV without the converter.
Converters are available at any Radio Shack or Walmart.
The newer Flat screen LCD/LED backlit and Plasma TV's can decode the Digital signal directly.
