You might be able to play games with a RADIO SHACK MULTI-SWITCH unit... We used to use a MULTI-SWITCH back in the early days of SAT TV. The downside back then was the scan rate for the switch was poor and you would experience some flickering in the channels as the MULTI-SWITCH would do its scanning.
might look something like this...

I get away here using a standard dual channel SAT DISH and just run RG cables from each DISH channel to two separate SAT TV RECEIVERS in the trailer... Then I use the VIDEO OUTPUTs of the SAT RCVR to feed a separate VIDEO INPUT channel on the TV SET which I can select using the TV remote.
Have no idea how any of this would work with a Winegard Carryout unit.
Just food for thought...
