Location for External Cable TV connection
Does anyone know the exact location of the External Cable TV connection (where you connect campground cable) on a 270S? Nothing is labeled or obvious anywhere on the outside like my TT was. Guesses or should be will unfortunate not solve the problem. The black box selector switch (? cable, outside air, satellite) is in a cabinet above the passenger seat. There are 3 Tvs - kitchen, BR, Outside.

Not sure about 270S, but on my 328TS and on most Georgetowns, it's in the rear storage compartment where your shore power cable is located.

Thanks, but as I posted, shoulda's don't count. I checked all of them. I need to know exactly - tired of playing guessing games with GT and dealers that know absolutely nothing about the products they sell!

In my 2015 270 it's located in the drivers side rear storage compartment (bottom corner).

Like donamac & mr lou indicated, driver side rear storage compartment where power cord is stored, on the back wall down low. At least it is on my 270ss.

On my 2014 378, I need to connect the park cable to the input just aft of the door on the DW side. Doesn't work from the driver side electrical box for me.

That coax port is actually an output port for an external TV. That port cable terminates at a splitter in the DW overhead behind the AC receptical/antenna booster panel. The cable port in the power bay should be terminated at the source (ant/cable/sat) panel in the DW overhead. There is a coax from the source panel to the splitter where for distribution to the TV's. It could be that the coax from the source panel is your issue because where you connect the park cable it by-passes the source panel. Of course, if there are no issues with the over the air antenna input to all the TV's then this is a moot point concerning the source panel output to the splitter.

MY OTA works fine. I only recently looked for the cable connection, there is none except inside on the splitter box. No sat connection either. I think GT forgot to do another item !!!!

Eureka - Found it!
Its off white color on the compartment grey plastic made it nearly “invisible” with the compartment half full and it being located near the bottom of compartment on the aft wall. There is no label, but looking carefully, it has raised same color lettering “Park Cable”. I was looking for a small black colored box. This pic is not from my 270, but it allowed me to know what to look for. Its color was no nearly as high in contrast as this pic leads one to believe..
There is a wire (cable) connected to the Satellite Connection port of the black splitter box in the cabinet above the Passenger Seat. Where does it go to for its input point connection similar to the cable input? Possibly to the roof?

Should be a small low dome on the roof all the way forward, your sat cable should be under there, handy if you install sat antenna up there.
