2017 ace 29.4

I am new ACE owner. How do I get all 3 TV's hooked up to portable SAT dish. Seems like only 2 can be connected at one time? Any help would be appreciated.

V/R
CJ

Wouldn't the coaxial cable from the dish go to your receiver, and then you would have an HDMI cable from the receiver output to an input on your HDMI splitter? I assume that all 3 of your TV's have an HDMI cable going into the output jacks on your splitter - that's how mine was set up. I am assuming, of course, that your HDMI splitter has at least 3 output jacks.

I ultimately went with 2 receivers so that I could watch different programs on different TV's.

Is your SAT dish portable and will it drive 3 receivers? If so what brand/model is your dish.

I have the roof-mounted DirecTV Winegard Trav'ler satellite dish, and it will power 3 receivers. Maybe I'm missing something, but I would think that a good HDMI splitter should be able to carry the signal to more than 2 TV's.

Here is an example: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...tag=willsef-20
