For the satillite input there are 4 possible connectors. One says to TV one, one says to TV 2 which connection do we use for the TV in the living room TV. Trying to connect up the direct TV dish and having some problems receiving satillite signal. I know the receiver is working...working in the house. Know the cable is working...connected the cable to the camp ground cable and we received signal. LNB on the dish could be bad or we're hooking to the wrong TV 1 or TV 2. Anyone else using the tripod method for direct TV? Thanks for your help.

The outlet in the UDC that is first from left to right is the correct one for the living room TV in our Bighorn. Also where the sat hookup inside the cabinet is in the outlet with the phone connection on same plug,but yours may not be. Run it from a window first direct to TV then you know for sure your sat is right.

Thank you Charlie for posting some help. We did not think about running through the window to check. Great idea! Our dish is sooooo old and huge. Doesn't fold up for easy storage. I was hoping that we would purchase a Winnguard at camping world. DH is checking everything before we do that. Thanks again for the help.

We use a tripod for our dish, if you are going to purchase a new dish look on ebay instead of CW , you will save alot of cash.
