My VIP211Z has no coax return, only AVI or HDMI. I connected the HDMI from cabinet to receiver and that does feed only dinette tv. I also connected AVI cables to a RF Converter and connected that output back to the coax wall plate. The backside was then reconnected to the original PARK input on the ANT Booster switch.

To view:
Dinette only...select tv source to HDMI = DISH.
All 3 TVs...Select TV as source, ANT booster on = roof ant.
...............Booster OFF, tune tv to Ch3/4 to view DISH.
Kinda the same thing I did, so I could use my Tailgater.

I have since installed a roof mounted dome so I can use that when I have a clear shot at the bird and park cable if available or the Tailgater if I am in the trees, all going through a Quest switch box. I like choices)
