Camping this week in our 2021 251VFK. Parked right next to my parents in a 2019 Grand Design Imagine. Both have King antennas. But, when they scan channels on their TV, they get 22 channels, and we only get 6. Any idea why the difference? I checked, and the amp is on (green light on)

Could be loose connections. Could be wires are connected to the wrong ports on the wall plate. Could be differences in sensitivities of the TVs themselves.

Were you Lower than the other trailer? Could their trailer have been blocking some channels?

Are you parked next to each other? maybe you have more trees then they do. Maybe your not pointing the antenna in the same direction?

One TV just has a better receiver than the other. it might be sa little work but switch tv's to prove a point. I replaced my TV the next day after buying the new trailer. Another thing, your tv antenna on the roof of your trailer could be blocked by your A/C unit. I'm assuming when you said both antennas are King brand antenna but could be different models and that could make a huge difference too.

And it has only been 10 months since they posted their first post and have not been back since.... Just sayin' 10 months is an awful long time! They probably have a satellite dish by now and out of 120 channels there is still nothing interesting to watch.
