DX3 antenna and satellite cable routing

How do the coax for the antenna and the dish route into the front cap?

Is that something I can get access to relatively easy? Behind the speakers or TV?

It looks like I can get into that box possibly to get a cell booster wire through just want to know if I’ll be able to get to it.

A service person removed the panel by our doorway to trace the wire from the awning. he popped off the button type cover and then removed the screws. a lot of stuff there. The false speaker panels also come off and there is a lot of wires and insulation in there, as to what you need??????? You'll have to judge for yourself. It is possible to look with out ruining things. Just saying.

Fourwhl by all means don’t go by what I say but I think Dmax runs 2 coax down from the top in case 1 fails we have the spare.

Now when we were in Florida furb30 had 2 or 3 boosters he had added and his was a cabover but he put all of his in the receiver box above his tv and fireplace. His was bunk model. He showed me everything and this was a pretty handy guy. He acted like it was no big deal.

Yeah I’ve been behind the speakers when I was disconnecting the side cameras. I’ll have to poke around some more I guess. Was happy to see the combiner box on the roof. Hopefully it won’t be too much of a hassle

Start by going easy. Then if that don’t work use a chainsaw.

I don't know for that unit I only know for cabover. I do know if you have to come from the bottom for anything. The wires are in the wall behind the passenger seat on the coach side. I did come down from the roof the same way in that wall. The right side camera is in that wall also. That wall has a false opening so make sure that you are in the correct wall cavity. If anyone has a cabover bunk the camera control unit is in front right pocket under the little shelf near the tv in the cabover bunk. I add a monitor so that it will allow me to see my tow car all the time.
