Recently I stopped at a marina, scanned the TV’s and did not received 24 channels. The next day, at a different marina 40 miles away I didn’t receive any channels. And the next day, at another marina I also didn’t receive any channels. This was the situation on both TV’s. Vessel 2021 R-29CB. I noticed that a blue light was not ON under the analog round antenna on the boat mast. Does a blue light supposed to be lit on the antenna? Is there a switch or breaker on board besides the 1 amp blade fuse on the door of the electrical cabinet in the head?
Thank you in advance for your response.

My 2012 CW28 had a somewhat similar problem. Lost all ability to get any channels. inside the cabinet next to my Tv there was an interface/amplifier type voltage injector that sent power to the antenna through the coax In my travels I managed to break the coax connector off the circuit board in that box. I took out the box and repaired the connect and all my channels returned.
