Satellite question
My Fuzion 310 has Satellite and cable inputs. I know the satellite input is for the main TV and the cable input feeds all areas. We bought the King tailgater which has dual outputs. One output to satellite in...what can I do to get th satellite signal to remaining tv's ( garage, bedroom)? Will we be able to view different channels? A simple diagram would be great!!

The satellite hookup is mainly different because they need a heavier coaxe cable designed for satellite. It's R6. It's the same resistance as standard cable, but has more shielding. The standard cable run in the RV for the cable hookups may not give as clear of a picture, but it'll still work. In order to watch different channels, your dish needs to be able to receive two separate channels simultaneously and you either need two receivers or a receiver capable of feeding two TVs with separate channels. Hope that makes sense.

Satellite question
Each TV will require its own receiver to watch different channels. But there is a catch:
PRIMARY receiver chooses which Satellite is locked on. If the secondary receiver is watching the same channels being broadcast by the satellite, all is good.
If the PRMARY receiver switches channels that requires signal from a different satellite, then the secondary receiver will lose its signal.
This is the quick explanation, hope this answers your question.
BTW: Welcome to the forum!

Chuckster is correct, that's why I say a dish capable of receiving two separate channels. If it can receive multiple satellites, it'll have the ability to broadcast multiple channels with the limitations

Try using it on your satellite and see if you're happy with it. I'm not familiar with the way your dish is set up. If you have two cables coming from the dish, try hooking one to the satellite and the other to the cable and see how it works

To be able to watch channels on separate TV's at the same time,that are broadcast from different satellites is to use a dish with multiple LNB's and SWM technology. Only one I'm aware of that does that is the Trav'ler.

Winegard SK-SWM3 Direct TV install question
I have a 2013 Fuzion 310 that I'm wanting to install the SK-SWM 3 Direct TV on. Has anyone installed one on a 310 and/or is there a reinforced area on Fuzions for satellite installations?? Recommendations on where to install?
We have Direct TV in the house- can I use the Genie receiver, the video bridge and wireless boxes in my RV?
Thanks in advance
