What is this - box with display and switch?

Located in the front over head compartment where ant and cable TV enters and satellite receiver is located.

The display shows 'CL' whether the push button switch is pushed, no not.

Looks like "OF" or "CF" is being displayed in the picture.

Maybe a switch for the signal booster in your over the air antenna?

Possibly a remote control for the invertor , if you are not on shore power and push the button can you then turn on the TV.

It will tell you the approximate elevation when you are raising your satellite dish.

Yes, is displaying CF in the picture. I think maybe I erred when I said CL. Or maybe it's in fact switching CL to CF when the switch is toggled. I will have to double check it.

I was thinking OTA booster as well. The coach also has a manual satellite antenna on the roof - was standard equipment and original on the coach.

The brown outlet is for the TV. It meets the legal standard so the TV won't work while driving.
