For some reason Newmar didnt think about how to control satellite tv on the outside in 2006. I have been sucessfully using an RCA pyramid outside placing it in the neighboring bay and having to leave that door open for the pyramid...well...today I took a Rotozip and cut a triangular hole in the material around my outdoor tv....surprise.....it's solid corian!! The project went well except for breaking one bit...why didnt Newmar do this for us in 06?

Not sure why you had to extend from another bay. We have an AC outlet mounted in the TV bay right above the TV, which we use for the pyramid and other 110V requirements.

There was no room for the pyrimid in the tv bay without cutting the hole in the corian backer...also, there is no accessible ac outlet in my tv bay....its tucked away over head and buried...easy access to the outlet next door from above the partition
