You say you get a good signal in the lounge but not the the bedroom...
Question: Do you have two Sat Receivers or is your sat receiver in the lounge area and the bedroom is "Remote" from it?
One of the things I often say is that many RV's are wired with a few miles of "Lowest Bidder" wire, this includes the coax cable. .Lowest bidder tends to be very high loss.. And if some skiled (not) tecnician put a staple, nail or screw through the coax, or failed to crimp the ends on well enough... Well, this only makes it "Lower cost/quality"
If you are running a dual LNB antenna and multiple receivers, you have a bad coax or connetion.
