Galway Girl Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Our Winegard Omni HDTV antenna has failed.   Symptom: when turning on the amplifier the red led blinks on then off. Winegard tech support had me disconnect the antenna lead to the amplifier and press the on button.  The amp stays on.  So they said the fault is in the coax between the antenna and the amplifier.   For now I’ll live without the hdtv off air antenna as I’m on the road and can’t fully assess the issue.  There is a note in the antenna installation manual that says:  “Warning: Once the head and pedestal are connected, the head cannot be removed without incurring damage.“  When I get home in February I’ll repost the end of this story. 2019 Elite II (Hull 505 - Galway Girl - August 7, 2019 Delivery) Tow Vehicle: 2021 F350 King Ranch, FX4, MaxTow Package, 10 Speed, 3.55 Rear Axle Batteries Upgrade: Dual 315GTX Lithionics Lithiums - 630AH Total Inverter/Charger: Xantrex 2000Pro Travel BLOG:  https://4-ever-hitched.com  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators topgun2 Posted December 23, 2021 Moderators Share Posted December 23, 2021 Those connections "look" tight. It would be helpful to know if a single run was made from there to the antenna itself. And, exactly how/where is the other end of the coax connected to the antenna. Good luck Bill p.s. there's been nothing much to watch on TV anyway since Army lost to Navy this year 😠1 2023 Ford F150 Lariat 3.5EB FX4 Max Towing, Max Payload, 2016 Oliver Elite II - Hull #117 "Twist" Near Asheville, NC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
