Satellite in bedroom???

[KristinaWho]

Hello I'm completely new at this so please take it easy on me haha We have a 2010 365 bhs and are trying to get satallite in the top bedroom. Would this be a "wireing" thing or a "contact dish network" thing lol please help!! Thanks!

Do you have a satellite receiver in the 365 now?

[KristinaWho]

Yes a dual tuner from Dish. At our "1st" home the second tv has a cable to it so I know the signal isn't wireless or anything. But I am unsure how to do this in the camper without having to fun a million wires and tearing stuff up.

Same thing here. Run the TV2 output to the B port on A/B plate and it should feed TV2 to the other jacks in the RV (including the one outdoors) Be sure that the Antenna amplifier is turned off.

Oh, and you'll need to use your UHF remote for TV2 in the other locations.

I dont have a TV2 jack...How do I upload a pic of what i do have?

[nylyon]

What model dish receiver do you have?

Vip 722K DVR

The TV2 out is called the Home Distribution Connection. It's the connection right next to where the UHF antenna hooks up into. So run an RG-6 cable from the home distribution to the B port on the a/b plate and you'll be set. (and your receiver has to be in dual mode)

If you have any questions about the wiring of your 5'er, just call Jayco. They sent me a wiring schematic which made identification of which wire runs where simple.
