Hooking TV up to Shore cable

I have 2010 Rinker 360EC. I have a Shakespeare 2020 antenna mounted on my hardtop but I can only receive 4 TV stations.
When I hook up the TV connections on the boat to the shore cable pedestal it doesn't seem to make a difference.
I read that there is supposed to be a switch to change the connections from antenna to shore connections, I searched everywhere but can't find a switch.
Does anybody have any idea where the switch might be located assuming that the 360EC even has a switch.

In the 342, there is a switch in the cabinet that hosts the TV, along with the many other do dads and wires in there. You may have a splitter in lieu of a switch. I am assuming your 4 channels are in the low channel numbers. It is most likely that you need to find the menu button on your TV clicker and find the menu that has a selection option for cable/over the air service.
Other than that I wouldn't have a clue.
