The Thor manual shows a wiring diagram that is all coax cable but in reality my rv is all HDMI cables. And to top it off my sat box has RCA jacks output. So I can't even hook it up in line of this cable without a converter box.

I'm tempted to buy the converter from Walmart and set it all up outside the RV to see if this is going to work. If it does I may open the top of the bed and mount the sat box into the side above the fuse box.

Berry you have an antenna booster/switch plate. If you are watching TV from the Antenna it is using the COAX connection not the HDMI. This Booster/switch plate It has 3 cables attached to it. 1 is the cable coming in from the Antenna, there is also cable coming from the outside of the coach which is the 2 inputs into the booster/switch plate. the 3rd cable should run to a splitter that has 3 cables out which run to all 3 TVS. When the plate is switched in the on position you are getting the signal from the antenna to your tvs. With this switch in the off position you are getting a signal from your Outside Cable. Now what I did was buy a 1 input to 2 output Coax Splitter I unhooked the outside coax from the plate and installed it on the input of the splitter. I then ran one output to the back of the plate switch to complete that circuit again and then the other output went to my DishNet receiver. I then ran the HDMI from the receiver to the HDMI splitter since its a 2 input switch box. Does this make sense
