My 42" Plasma Digital TV won't pick up any channels.

Hi We have a 2 story house where there is one family living downstair and one upstairs. The tv upstairs is connected to the antenna outside and works fine except when its windy. Ours down stairs wont work at all. We have tried a connector from the outside antenna but there was no way we could close our sliding door and it still didn't work
So we've bought an flat panel amplified antenna for inside but the tv still wont pick it up.
Any ideas or is our tv dead?

I would troubleshoot it by moving the TV upstairs to where the signal is good, and seeing if the situation improves.

After connecting the antenna you have to run a channel scan for the TV to detect the channels that it is able to find. Did you do this after each trial?
