Sattelite hookup

We just had the dealer put in a second coax connection designated just for our tailgater satellite. We decided to place it close to the dinette so we could put the tv on the table so both of us could watch without turning or twisting for viewing.

check the model number of the plate... depending on which wineguard (eg. rv 7542) may have been wired incorrectly.... but more likely that you are not using it correctly. You may only have to move the connection that say "tv". NOTE: on the model stated, the switch is for "on /off" of the built in amp.

IF said plate is wired correctly, you need to take the satellite feed for the receiver off from the top coax connector (marked aux/sat). This feed bypasses the "electronics" in the plate and feeds the incoming signal from your "previously stated" outside coax connection which should be connected to your dish / LNB. IF you are using an antenna to your TV, you then need to take the coax feed mark TV to your TV set and select the switch "on" to cause the amp to work with your ceiling antenna. Further, if you are using CATV instead on the outside input. Again, you use the coax marked TV to your tv BUT you set the switch OFF to NOT use the amplifier.

I use a similar setup for my sat setup using an older wineguard but the operation is the same.

We got a dish tailgator and we ended just running the cable through a small window for the week we were on vacation. I might take the plate off the wall and look but I would think there should be a sattelite hook up since I have 2 connectors.

This shows the wire setup in my Jayco. AFAIK, it's the same basic common setup that is used in TT's.

1. If you are not getting sat signal, turn off the power booster and try it.

2. I would test your cable setup, bypass all the TT cables by running the sat dish cable thru the window or door direct to the cable box and HDMI the box to the tv. Once you know the dish works then look at the Jayco setup and compare that to yours.

If you are not getting a signal through the cables at your wall plate , I would unscrew it and look behind it to be sure they are making a connection.
My cable was not making contact due the thin TT wall construction which compressed the cable at the connector. The cable pulled off the connector.

On my Winnebago the other end of the satellite connection was 'buried' under the roof. Winnebago provided a template that helped you locate the hole you would cut to fish it out when you mounted a roof top sat dish. The first sat system we had was on a Fleetwood Flair. It was an old school manual crank up that was misery to zero in on a sat with. When we got our new Winne, we got a Tailgater that I intended to use as a portable to make it easier to dodge trees. I eventually mounted it permanent on the roof as I found half the time I was having to climb up and put it up there to dodge bushes. As for trees, now I always ask the campground if they have a sat friendly site. They are all hip to that and it gets rid of fiddling with something else (sat dish) when setting up.
