1st thing I checked , but sat wire goes to wall connection and cable wire goes to booster curcuit board.I pulled the booster outlet. I would try to explain everything thing but it might get more confusing. They may have the booster board wired wrong, but the booster works. I’ll need to find out what cable go where on the circuit board for the booster. There’s 4 coax cables behind the wall outlet. RED is SAT, Black feeds to entrance area TV. Grey and White one goes the cable connector on outside and other goes to antenna.

It is a common mistake that the sat and cable wires are switched.  So if you follow the instructions people have posted here and still not getting any cable channels you need to connect the cable coming in from the campground to the satellite connection and most times it fixes it.

If it worked on Sat hook up, maybe it's wired wrong?  Maybe mislabeled? Glad it atleast worked eventually.

I was assuming everyone knew that, sorry. Antenna booster TURNED OFF and Digital Cable would not program.

I might be misunderstanding, but it's been stated that you should not use the antenna booster when watching cable. Maybe you meant something else.
