Cable TV Wiring?

Yahoo Message Number: 94682
Can anyone tell where the coax cable TV connection on the outside of the motorhome terminates in the entertainment center? the cable on the back of the terminal at the outside of the motorhome (meaning where you would connect to the cable TV in the RV park) is marked with the letter C. I cannot find any cable marked with the letter C in the entertainment center. where does this cable C normally connect in the entertainment center and what is it marked? does it go to the switch box? does it go to the VCR? I disconnected this years ago when I put in a satellite receiver and I now need to use that outside connection for an external satellite dish on the ground. I need to connect the dish to that outside coax and then connect that to the back of the satellite receiver. I see an unused cable mark D. I have a cable marked "to VCR" and one marked "from VCR". I cannot see the cables on the back of the Radio Shack switch box unless I pull everything apart. Can anyone help?

Ok, I found the "C" coax attached to the back of the Radio Shack switch box. To take anything else out of the picture, I removed it and connected it directly to the satellite receiver with the dish connected to the outside receptacle. No signal. I assume this means that the cable is broken somewhere between the outside receptacle in the water bay and the inside. If the outside dish is wired directly to the receiver it works perfectly.

I guess I don't understand what your cable TV coax would have to do with your regular on roof antenna and booster or why they would be connected. These are two separate systems.

Rich,

It should be marked as "C" and terminate at the switch box.
