OK, Bill, here they are...
If cable is available at a typical RV park, do I have access to cable tv, via the existing cable wiring, and using the external port, or will I require a cable box -a Wally - to access service? If the proper source is chosen from the TV menu, is that all there is to it?
YES, THAT'S ALL THERE IS TO IT. AS I MENTIONED, THE WALLY IS A SATELLITE TV RECEIVER.
In order to watch the bedroom TV, will I need a separate "Wally" for access to the park's cable? I assume if I subscribe to Dish, they'll provide one for home, but not sure about a second, when I request service to the RV.
NO RECEIVERS OF ANY KIND REQUIRED FOR PARK CABLE. IF YOU SUBSCRIBE TO DISH TV YOU WILL GET RECEIVERS TO USE AT HOME. HAVE THEM INSTALL A WALLY (NOT STANDARD WITH A HOME INSTALLATION THESE DAYS) TO USE IN THE RV. IF YOU NEED TO WATCH 2 DIFFERENT CHANNELS ON 2 DIFFERENT TV'S YOU WILL NEED 2 WALLY'S. IF YOU JUST WANT TO WATCH TV ON BOTH AT DIFFERENT TIMES YOU CAN DO THAT WITH JUST ONE BUT SOME WIRING MODIFICATIONS MAY BE NECESSARY.
Will I be able to watch two different channels with two TV's, running one cable to the outside port in the power cable compartment? Or will I be required to use both ports on the satellite antenna, running one cable through an as yet unidentified point of access, say, to the bedroom TV?
CABLE, NO RESTRICTIONS ON WHO WATCHES WHAT. FOR SATELLITE TV, SEE ABOVE.
Knowing as little as I do, are there more questions I should also have the answers to?
YES.
Thank you all for your guidance!
