I recently installed a new smaller digital tv in the cabin of my 340 Dancer, but still don't get very good reception. Has anyone else had luck improving reception by either replacing the old amplifier or stock Glomax antenna?

Just purchased a 2006 SeaRay 280, and everything works...but the tv.
We can adjust the gain thru the entire spectrum, weak to strong, but we still just get static (in an area, San Francisco, that I could get reception on a cheap antenna). Is there another switch or something I need to turn on?[/QUOTE
First thing-do you have a digital TV or a digital converter? If the TV is original, I do not think it is digital and you must have a newer TV or the digital converter. If you know you have digital, I would do as Jason78 states above and start with the antenna/coax and make sure it is connected. Then move to the amp and see if it performs as indicated above. Removing the amp and returning for verification or replacement is easy and free.

Now that takes me back; my father now 92 would say that in reference to my mother now 89, still together and living in the Idaho mountains...
Hello - I have a 2009 280 Sundancer and the Glomex gain control dial does not appear to turn on...can someone let me know where the amp is located so that I can check all the connections? thank you.
Last time I had my refer out, I was messing with the tv cable routed behind it and found there is no 12v DC connection to my Glomex amp. I checked my schematic and it doesn't show a 12v connection, just the coax connection. Is it possible Sea Ray neglected to power this amp or the PO removed the wiring? I need to find the 12v power I can connect to so I can improve my TV reception.
