2017 Hathway 36CK2 Antenna wiring diagram

Good Afternoon Everyone
Ok so I am going down this rabbit hole and I know better. I have owned several Fifth wheels over 20 years. Does anyone know where I can find a wiring diagram for the coax throughout the trailer.
I am trying to simplify our wiring connections. We use all three types of connections depending on our location.( Antenna, Direct TV and Park Cable)
Thanks in advance
  • I don't think you will find an actual schematics for your FW.

    On my FW I have my OTA connection inside, goes to 3 locations, and two connections outside. One outside is the park cable, and the other is satellite connection. My park cable goes to 3 locations, LR, BR, and basement, just inside baggage door, for outside viewing.

    My outside satellite connection goes straight to BR, and has its own single plate hookup, as it has a single coax direct, no split connection. It would connect to receiver there, before being directed elsewhere.

    If you have 2 connections outside, I'd suspect yours to be set up similar to mine.

  • That would make life simple if that is the case. I could label one input for Cable and Label the other for direct TV.
    Since Direct TV cannot be split with my setup it would be beneficial to know the wiring schematics.
  • I'd expect satellite to be DirecTV/Dish but they could be connected in some other manner.
  • I have 3 connections in the livingroom, antenna, aux and satelite, also have the same three in the bedroom. what is the satelite one used for. I think the aux is my direct tv and the antenna is air/cable connection. I don't ever recall using the Satelite that seems to always be printed in red.
  • You should be able to find and disconnect all coax ends. Then with a wire tracer or ohm meter identify the end of each coax. And then make your own coax wiring diagram.

    But what do you mean by simplify?
