For the television, are you trying in an area with good reception or bad reception. Did you turn the TV's amplifier on (the button on the wall plate). Did that make any difference?

I remember reading about the black and white and how to fix it. It has been a while but a search might find the posts on that subject.

thanks!!!!!  I had changed the source last night while the DVD was playing and it didn't work, BUT I tried again this am without the DVD and we have COLOR!!!! THANK YOU! My Grands would have been thrown into a time warp.
Still no signal, booster is on.   we are at the Pangutich KOA UT its real close to the town. so I figure the reception should be good.

Unfortunately not the proximity of town, more the availability of signal.

I was in West Yellowstone. We were in town but even with the booster, we only got enough of a signal on one channel to know it was there. However, it was unwatchable. I agree that it is in the availability and strength of the signal that are primary factors in whether you can get TV reception or not.
