TV Help

Hey all. We have a Jayco 284BHSW TT 2017. Trying to figure out the televisions. I have it attached to the antenna and know the signal boost but two questions.
1. Should the small TV in the bedroom be wired along with the primary TV and pick up the same antenna signal?
2. The cable hookup is not labeled. There is one port on the outside for both satellite and cable. I've attached a picture, trying to figure out why the middle box has a short coax connecting both ports. Should one of these be satellite and the other cable? If so, any reason for the ports to be connected as is?

I believe that jumper cable in the middle combines the signal so you get the same output on both TVs. My old TT had 2 TVs but my current one doesn't.

I have a similar setup on my TT to your pic. To use my portable satellite system I have to disconnect the bottom of the cable loop, that’s my direct feed from the connection on outside coaxial of TT, but doing that I only have TV in living area.

TV

Thanks for the input. One of those has to be satellite and the other cable as there is only one outside port for both. I'll just have to experiment on the road.
Stay healthy out there.

12volt vs 110volt TV reception

TV works fine when plugged into 110 volt.
On 12 volt, when selecting TV input on menu
TV does not get any reception.
What am I doing wrong?
