Questions about upgrading my RV to satellite TV

Hi all....I have a 2016 Jayco Alante and want to install a satellite system. However, I am so new to this that being a NEWB doesn't fit! So my question(s) revolve around the audio/video schematics for this unit. Is there any way to get a schematic for the system? I have 3 TV's, two indoor and one outdoor, and recently purchased a WInegard portable Satellite unit, but my knowledge of how the Alante is wired for TV isn't in anything, manual wise. College football is looming on the horizon and I'd love to be able to get this up and running. Any help is GREATLY appreciated!!
Thanks in advance!

I had the same issue with my 26AX. If you are not concerned about cable TV, then use the coax cable that runs from the basement utility center to the power injector in the overhead cabinet above the main TV(pg 131-133 in my owners manual). I removed the panel in the overhead cabinet and re-routed the cable, installed a new wall outlet and used it for portable satellite TV. This worked fine for our first trip to Texas. Next spring I ran a new coax to the basement utility center so I had a Satellite/Cable option. Hope this helps.
