Tv

I have the living room TV hooked up through outside satellite hook up. Cannot get bedroom reception thru satellite. How do I do that?

You can do a search on this forum. You could also call Jayco customer support and ask how to make it work for your specific RV. They will send you a packet with the directions and a drawing on how to make it work.

Have you not ever questioned who makes the logic for this....is there not an Rving book for the designer dummies? I would love to have some RV manufacturers ask the real users of their products for improvement suggestions......

It would help to know which unit you have to get the proper help.

Our coach has two satellite connections outside, (1) for the living room TV and (1) for the bedroom TV, it also has a coax jumper that needs to be removed in order to switch the system from the cable to satellite.

Now that's something I never considered. My unit has two unmarked external antenna hookups, I just assumed one was for cable and one for satellite. Duh.

I never worried about it 'cuz I've only ever twice cranked up the roof top antenna (first time a test, second time my bride wanted to watch fat people racing around the world) and it worked.

I've also never tried the built in DVD (BluRay?) player.

REason you can't find the second fitting is Jayco did away with them in '16. Stupid decision. I just went through this with a '16 pinnacle. You have to bring a separate coax from the lmb of the dish to the coach and the panel where the input for the living room is has a splitter behind it. You have to remove the splitter going to the rear tv for it to work. the way ours was wired for satellite had the bedroom tv and the basement tv split from the aux jack on the panel where the valves are for city water hookup. If you remove the panel and replace the splitter with a barrel connector the rear tv will receive the signal from the satellite.

I have drawings from Jayco that show this on the Pinnacle models. It may be the same for other models.

Thank You so much. I found the connection this morning. Yes, hidden behind the outside shower valves like you said. Also had solar panel connection and backup camera connection there as well. Who puts electric with water??? Go figure. Thank You!!
