Hi Doggerbite,

Welcome to the Heartland Owners Forum.

I am not familiar with the layout of your Prowler, but the booster is typically at one of the coax wall plate locations. If you have coax in the bedroom as well as the living room, look in the bedroom. On some models it's in the closet. On others, it's close to where the TV mounts.

The booster has a small push-push switch to turn the amplifier ON. An LED next to the switch lets you know it's ON. It needs to be ON for over the air antenna TV signals. It needs to be OFF for cable TV.

It's not automatic. You must push the button and turn it on or off.

You also may have to go into the TV menu and select AIR/Antenna or Cable. For AIR/Antenna, you will have to run a channel scan too. On cable, you may or may not have to run a channel scan, depending on the cable system and your TV.

A few newer TVs automatically detect Antenna or Cable and won't present a menu choice.
