Challenger question

On my 2015 KT I have a cable connection in the same compartment as the power cord, can I hook up a portable sat dish to it? Anyone tried it.

Maybe, if it's a RG-6 cable. You would also have to disconnect the other end which would be at the power injector/splitter.

You should be ok, try it. Should look like this.

We had a setup like this on a SOB.
I used it to hookup the campground cable. Dropped the coax out of the same hole as the power cord.
There was an a/b switch at the main tv where I could pick which input I wanted to use.

You might want to search the forum. If I remember correctly when we first bought our Challengers back in early 2015 there was someone else that made that mod and posted a thread. Also, if I remember correctly, something had to be done at the splitter coming in or the HDMI switch so they could connect the dish controller.
