Do you have access to cable from the place you're staying at? If so try and see if that works?

This should give you some things to check.. the blue light being on at the KeyTV multisource controller only means it has 12 vol5s present and the LED is lit..
The roof OTA antenna has a preamp that requires 12 volts to power it, this is sent from the KeyTV box up to the OTA antenna via the coax lead going to that antenna

KeyTV problems
We had problems in the early stages of Rving. First thing in the morning when it was cool all the channels came in. Then as the day progressed we would lose channels. We then went and got a antenna from Walmart and attached it to the RV and after rescanning all the channels came in. We later learned that there were a couple of problems. First the coax cables going to the back of the KeyTV were loose and second it would overheat as the day got hotter. We contacted KeyTV and they sent us a replacement that fixed all the problems. Hope this helps

No idea what your model yours is, but if you have KeyTV I assume yours is the same as ours. Just double checked and we have the Blue jumper for the KeyTV in the convenience center hooked up to the SAT input, as well as the SAT connection behind the TVs. Make sure yours is the same and then scan for OTA signals. If you still don't get anything, I spent an hour pulling panels to tighten the back side of each connector gently with a small wrench. They don't have to be gorilla tight, but they DO have to be very snug or they will simply vibrate loose again pulling your rig down the road.
Best of luck and happy camping!
Quick suggestion - take advantage of the User CP button up near the top left side of the page to add a signature line with the year and model of your fiver. That will only help others help you in return. Happy Camping!

Just make sure your cable is not plugged into the KeyTV system. Over the air channels can't be scanned with that cable plugged in. In the park where we are, there is too much interference with 5G, etc. so we can not get over the air channels here. Once we leave and go to another park, we unplug the cable from the KeyTV box, run the OTA channels and get a lot of channels. Check all the connections, but do not take the KeyTV box apart as that may void your warranty.
