We also have one coax connector on the rear of our Cougar. We do not have satellite TV, so we use it (with the inside loop connected) for cable TV. If we had satellite, the dish connector is attached to that single coax fitting and the satellite receiver is connected in place of the inside loop. On ours, the loop is removed, the satellite receiver input is connected to the lower connection and the satellite receiver output is connected to the top loop connector. With this connection, if we connect a satellite dish to the rear coax input, the signal goes to the receiver and then to the TV. If we connect a TV cable signal to the rear coax, the signal "flows through" the satellite receiver and then to the TV. Of course, there is also the antenna booster which is turned OFF for all satellite or cable TV and turned ON for OTA antenna input.
Here's a photo of the "inside loop".
