Satellite TV

I have a 2017 Coachman 36BH and was wondering if anyone has ever hooked up a dish portable tailgater satellite to the TV's inside the coach and if so how did you hook it up?

We have a sat on the roof. You’ll probably need to feed it through the cable input. You probably need to add an A-B switch in the upper left cupboard to make it work.

PM me if I can be if more help.

In my Leprechaun 319MB, I paid my dealer to install a Winegard Tailgater on the roof and cable it to the TVs with DirecTV receivers. Receivers use HDMI cable to the unused HDMI inputs on the TVs.

I'm not in love with what the dealer did, but they were pretty clever with the cabling. No need for a separate A/B box - you use the TVs' input selector to choose Antenna/Cable or DirecTV.

I did not want to mount mine on the roof, so here is how I ran cable to enable me to hook it up on the ground.
