Rewiring Coach/TT for Satellite Use
Everyone who wants to use satellite TV in an RV has your problem. I found the post "Rewiring Your Coach for Satellite Use" very sufficient and rewired my coax (2011 Montana High Country) to resolve the problem.
The coax splitter (behind the antenna amp in my bedroom closet) must be replaced with a new one suitable for satellite signals first.
The antenna amp coax cables must be rewired second.
I used a Klein Coax Tracer unit (Lowes) to trace the coax cables before starting on the antenna amp rewire job. Refer to attached pic.
I am using the Dish Tailgater (single receiver) and have been completely satisfied - even though all TVs have to show the same channel unless you add a separate DVD player, which I did.
Go ahead and do the coax rewiring mod. You can still use the antenna if you need to.
