Depends on how the factory wired the RV. If you have more than one TV set, then probably, no. All satellite antennas (dishes) require a home run coax from the antenna to the receiver. Most RV manufactures put a coax splitter in the coax run. This splitter will not pass the DC current needed to power the LNB on the antenna. If you replace the splitter with a green label splitter, then the red terminal will pass the DC current. The splitter is usually found just behind the terrestrial antenna power switch panel. Solid Signal has the splitters
