Sat and Cable Connectors

I am looking at a new trailer and it only has the "Cable" external connector. What if I want to use it with Satellite or an external OTA antenna? Is there any way to make it work with all three, Cable/Sat/Ant, with switches or changing wiring in the pre-amp?

    Satellite (usually) requires that dish be connected directly to receiver. From the receiver, you have a lot of options. The "Cable" connection cannot be used for the Satellite connection as it is configured. Of course, If you know what you are doing, there are lots of wiring options. On my rig, I can use just about any combination you could imagine.
