Four Winds 31E.... TV switch box

or splitter. Does anyone know where its located? Have a a new Winegard Pathway 2 and Wally receiver for Dish, but I dont see the switch/splitter box. I want to fix it so I can hook up the receiver to the living room TV and the outside TV. I know I will be viewing the same thing, just want to be able to watch Dish from both locations. Thanks

We have a Chateau 31L and it does not have a switch box or splitter.

Ok. Maybe thats why I cant find it. LOL. How many TVs are on your coach? And how are they arranged for cable and or antennae? Does the cable outlet run to all of them?

The cable does run to all of them. There is the antenna booster behind the main TV and from there it runs to the one in the bed room and the one outside. Works fine with cable but with satellite it did not work. Had to make a few changes for that.

Would you let me know what you did for the sat hookup?

I pulled the antenna booster out of the wall and disconnected the lead from the 'cable' connection. I put a coupler on that connection and ran an extension to the sat in connection on the sat tuner. Then from the sat tuner I ran HDMI directly to the TV in the living area. I also ran from the "TV out" connection back to the antenna booster connection that previously had the 'cable' connection attached. It works fine but in the event I am in a park that has cable and I want to use cable instead of satellite I have to switch back. I've looked (but not very hard) for a switch box that would resolve this but so far have not found one.
