Tracking down television cable connection?

So after a 4 hour drive to our destination, hooked up the rig to the site's television cable, and all three televisions we have our not clear and have a "snowy" effect. I hooked one TV directly up to the site's cable and the TV is crystal clear, so that eliminated it being a problem with our RV site or the TV itself. I then unscrewed the cable/sat connection panel that's on the driver's side where the water connection is, and found all the cables somewhat loose. Tightened those and still the same problem. I checked all the cable connections where the main TV is located and all our tight. My question is, where do I look now? Our rig is a 2019 3560RL with the motorized television in the desk. From where the cable comes into where the main TV is, it disappears into the floor. Is there another connection I can reach behind the storage bay two side panels where say the water pump is? Truly frustrating.

Robert,

I believe 19 was the transition year for KeyTV. If you do not have KeyTV, recommend you make sure the antenna booster switch is off.

If you don't have Key TV there should be RF connectors in the convenience center. Remove the plastic panel hiding the water pump and you can access the connectors on the back side of the RF connectors.

If you have Key TV, you have my deepest sympathies. I have no knowledge of that system.

I also know nothing about Key TV, but if you don't have it there are also splitters located behind the convienence center and they can be a problem.
