I added the Travler in addition to the Dome - so maybe the dome is wired like that.

Does this help? It's a schematic for the satellite wiring with a few setups. But is dated 2013.

That diagram is current for the 2016s as well. There are three coax cables fed from the roof to the basement but two are reserved for Shaw or Dish requirements. For DirecTV only one coax is used, although all three of them, as well as an off-air coax, do run to the basement. From there the power inserter and 1x4 SWM splitter are installed. The splitter sends outputs to three TVs - outside, bedroom and main TV. The front overhead TV is not fed (at least not in 2016) because you won't put a receiver there anyway, seeing as how it's in the same room as the main TV.

Great to see it laid out on a digram like that. That makes it much clearer. Thanks RW8804. Do you happen to have any other wiring diagrams?

Marc, unfortunately I do not have any other Entegra diagrams, except for the Spartan schematics that I know you already received from Jeanne. In Entegra's online manuals section, there are a few AV schematics that have helped me track down a problem or two. I've only looked for my model and year, so I do not know if such schematics are online for other coaches. Also, I have to admit that I don't recall where I got the satellite schematic. It was probably on this forum, so I thank the person who originally posted them.
