2nd TV in Kitchen

I have had a RCA under the counter tv in the kitchen for the past 2 1/2 years. I purchased a new tv to upgrade. The new tv will not find a signal so is useless. I gave up and put the old tv back up. However, now that tv cannot find a signal either. I hope I am not stuck without a tv in the kitchen.

I want to mirror the signal from my LR receiver to the kitchen/under cabinet tv without running cable.

I'm a new DirecTV customer. As a DISH customer I could "mirror" what was playing on my livingroom TV on the little under cabinet kitchen TV. Nice for cooking dinner when the family is watching something in the LR. Our house is already wired and we don't want to run coaxial cable from the livingroom

How do you get the tv’s to sync? My tv in my living room and the tv In my kitchen are about 2 second off from each other.

My tv’s are about 2 seconds off & when we watch live events it is very annoying that 1 tv echos the other. Is there a way to fix this and sync them?
