When I plugged it into the coaxial connection on my HD tv I get a "No Signal" message. What am I doing wrong?

If your TV remote control has an "INPUT" or "SOURCE" button, make sure that it is set to "TV".

Plug in ac/dc transformer into wall socket. Most of these will hum if you press your ear to them tightly. Make sure the jack on the other end of the transformer is inserted all the way in. Make sure that the connection you are plugging into is "antenna in". Go to menu on your tv select "signal type" or "antenna type ". Try any except cable setting. This should cover it.

You have to connect it into the coaxial connection and then go to the TV menu and set up the antenna from there. It will search for channels that you can watch with your antenna.

I used to get that as well. I don't thinks it's anything you are doing wrong. I am no expert on electronics but I truly believe it's the antenna and the positioning of such. I was getting so frustrated with it that I ended putting foil on the tips just like in the old days with the rabbit ears. We laughed so hard with the kids my daughter got me other antenna for Xmas. The new one works great. In regards to this one try to position it higher than the TV or play with the positioning. Also consider some TV channels are not as accessible as others with certain types of antennas. Hope it helps

Follow-up: I tried hooking my unit up with a digital TV signal converter and it didn't work.

You need to start over again, change the hookup. Mine has been playing now for almost two years. I think that you have everything hooked up wrong. Try this: First, you need an antenna. I use a Philips antenna. Plug the antenna into ("antenna in"), on the box. Now your cable or coaxial cord goes into the back of your TV and plug that into ("TV Out"), on the cable box. Now you need to go to menu and set up your TV...I think that the instructions should come in the box that your cable box came in.. I hope this works for you. Let us know if this works for you....If all else fails, you may need another box, they should exchange it for you, just follow instructions that I sent you...

If you have connected tv, receiver, speakers properly, and initialized receiver and did the tone test and everything worked. Then make you chose thru your receiver to direct input signal from tv in receiver choose this setting HD-D.C.S i think this will take care of sound problem.

My guess is without knowing your setup is that one of your tv's don't have Audio out. Notice the plugs that it uses in the picture, some higher and lower end tv's skip this as it is an old tech also since it cancels the HD sound with analog sound.

Is there a reason that you don't want to use the coaxial input on the TV? The signal from the TV station transmitter is in HDTV format.(1080 DPI) Unless it a monitor TV, then you will have to get a DVT to HDMI converter.

You plug it into a coaxial connect in the back your TV. (Looks like this: http://a248.e.akamai.net/pix.crutchfield.com/graphics/infolib/homelib/h75ohmCoaxialJack.jpg) Your TV must have a built-in HD Tuner. (Most TV now a days have them built-in) Once you plug the HD Antenna in. The go to your setup menu for your TV and run a channel scan. It will find all the HD channels it can find. I have my Antenna on the 2nd story of my house and it works Great!

Is there any chance that your hdmi connecting point is intermittently loose or not plugged in securely? It's just a cable. If the connection points are secure the problem is probably elsewhere like with whoever is providing service to you... Satelite/cable co signal instability?? Power surge? On the remote chance the cable itself is frayed or broken internally you could buy a second cable. If the problem still shows up it rules out the cable itself but not the signal, connecting points etc.

I have a coax going to this device which is running cable channels and I have it connected through an HDMI cable to my TV. Works fine for me.

All I can say is that I attached the cable to the receiver and had dish activate it. and all is working just fine. hope that helps some. Good luck to you.

Please provide more details. Is TV connected with a receiver or something else? Or was on for a moment then black out?

I don't have an optical source on my television. I was using the coaxile cable and the other cables supplied with the unit.

Not sure...make sure the wire leads are correctly attached to same color leads on your tv. You could also try adjusting the scan button?

connect to actual cable that is either dish/comcast service to see if tv works. if it does get boost assist signal amplifier dont go cheap, get the best you can.

I'm unsure of the problem since I currently have digital cable connected to this tv. You should try calling your digital cable provider.

I would check the pins to see if they are broken. Could be a bad cable also check it with another tv if it works fine with another TV could be the settings for the tv.

If it is a old TV then you need a digital to analog converter box. You plug the Philips antenna into the converter box and then plug the converter box into the coaxial TV plug. Here is Youtube video that might help. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGqbp5gSQOQ
