Maybe now is the time for you to figure out which cables go where. I would start by and I'm assuming that you have a B.O.M.B. or Box Of Many Buttons. If it is like most of them, the cables are hooked up in an obvious way. Normally(assume disclaimer here)there will be a wall plate with a minimum of a small slide switch and indicator light, often there will be and "F" connector on the plate. That will be "the booster power switch". It is really just a power supply/splitter for the Batwing and Sensar antennas. The plate is normally, black, white or ivory.
There are several different configurations, there will be a pair of wires that provide the 12vdc power to the booster in the head. There will be two or more 75ohm coaxial cables attached to the splitter on the back of the plate(some have an "F" fitting on the front)
There you go for a normal installation.
Some, "Some" BOMBs have the 12vdc power to the booster in the batwing built in and the Winegard power supply is not needed.
If there are no 12vdc wires to your BOMB, you'll have the power supply/splitter somewhere with a cable leading to the BOMB. Just follow the antenna in on the BOMB back to the power supply.
