As a new RV owner, I am struggling to understand the operation of the wall plate where the 2 cables attach, one from the antenna, and the other from the cable input jack mounted on the rear left of th...

Is the Sensor Pro really that good? What would the connection for an amplified antenna's wall plate really be? and Does anyone know the model number for the wall plate that would go with a Sensor IV? Winegard's "for all models" instructions are not helpful.
Little confused by your question :h - the Winegard SensarPro doesn't require the use of any "wall plate" as it replaces the wall plate, the biggest difference being it offers +/- 10 db of signal gain / attenuation which a conventional passive wall plate does not. The antenna cable feeds the SensarPro input, 12 vdc supplied by the trailer is connected to the SensarPro to drive it and is also routed to your new Sensar IV antenna head which contains a signal amplifier of it's own, and the SensarPro provides 2 outputs which can be used to feed up to 2 television sets.
I apologize.
The current plate that came with this new-to-me camper has no way to hook up the two TV cables (Air and outside RV park cable)to the one output. There is only the 12V socket.
Should I choose to NOT go with the SensarPro . . . what would be the correct wall plate to put in the camper? I am guessing it needs the splitter component and a 12V feed to the antenna input?
As my camper is small, I don't need two TVs, and where I tend to go (rural, boonies), I am also not sure the signal gain would be worth while. So, is the SensarPro really worth the bucks?
I've owned this thing a whole two months, so please bear with me! :)
