Okay - I feel a little silly now. I started by tracing the cable from where it enters the RV. I didn't get far. The cable is curled up under the dash and has a standard cable connector on the end of it. It's long - obviously meant to be unraveled from under the dash.
I *think* the "CABLE TV" jack on the outside, therefore, is aftermarket - which is why there is no explanation in the manual.

The cable is close in proximity to the aforementioned jack/switch. I wonder if I hook the CATV cable up to the jack whether the signal would then appear in the back? Or would I tear a hole in the fabric of the universe?
There's a tool on the market for tracing out cable wires you place remote sensors at one end of the cable (it comes with 4 sensors, marked by color, then attached the tool and it will light up each color sensor by a light lamp corresponding to sensors color. Found the tool at home depot, in the electric dept. made by klien tools Had similar issues myself. For the 25.00 it's well worth it
