Bedroom cable hook up

concreteman · 12-24-2012, 05:51 AM

I have a 2012 305 sk and was wondering what source the bedroom cable hook up was connected to? I would like to know before I invest in another TV. I have a dish network box in the living room and would like to get that to the bedroom.

I spliced in a Tee in the coax from the Ent center to the front bedrrom (just AFTER the booster) and connected the Dish Receiver's SD output at the Tee. I have the 722 receiver so now I can watch two different sat channels (one each TV) and each TV is controlled with it's own remote. Works great.

I have used a through the windowcoax connector. We have DirecTV and our three LNB dish contains threecoax connections. One is connected to the "SAT" jack on the RV and the other to the flat through the window connector. I connect the the coax from the antenna to the connector. I then open the window, place the connector and close the window. A short piece of coax goes from the connector to the satellite receiver. I am able to watch two different shows at the same time.

If I understand your question correctly, the cable to the bedroom comes from the power/booster box in the entertainment center. The outside cable box/connection feeds into the booster as does the over the air antenna. From the factory, the bedroom can receive either cable or over the air signals. Hope this helps.

Thanks stan that sense. Maybe if i connect my dish to the cable jack when not on cable I could get that in the bedroom as well. What do you think?

dish has a multi room receiver box you can work two tvs on one box. no cutting wires. I have it and it works great. they give you two remotes, one box.

I don't know if the booster is a one direction connection. That's why I found the coax going to the bedroom and spliced in just AFTER the booster. If the satellite receiver is not installed the coax for it just lays in the cabinet.

I had to add a splitter to get a signal from my dish to the bedroom.I think satellite feed only runs to main tv.There have been other discussions here and I think a search would tell you more.
