How do I get the bedroom tv and outside tv to work with satellite...not over air antenna

Jim_HiTek · 09-22-2019, 07:19 PM

Pretty sure you need to contact the satellite company.

If you are up to try to tracing the cables and find where they go. I found the splitter under my microwave when I pulled it for a different reason then the cable went to the main tv that had the booster button. There was two coaxial connecters on it one for cable Satellite and the other Antenna you may need to ad a splitter to to change it how you want it

Need more information. Do you want to watch all three at the same time? Do you want to watch different channels at the same time? Do you have a preference for satellite service? Dish has an antenna that will allow you to watch different channels on two tv’s as long as both channels are on the same satellite.

There are plenty of wireless HDMI systems that will allow you to replicate your HDMI from the satellite receiver to another tv in a room nearby and still keep your main TV picture. Works for me. Note sure if you can do this for 2 additional TVs, though. Search for it on Amazon.

Thanks for all the replies...just got a schematic from jayco of all the coaxal wiring in the camper...hopefully I can figure it out

Also...doesn’t wireless HDMI have to have a wi-fi connection... where I camp I barely get cell phone service...so my wi-fi hot spot doesn’t work

I think most satelite dishes only support two tv's and to watch different channels you'll need two receivers.

What sat co you using?.....and what type of dish?

No wifi required. Battery draw is minimal. Works great if you don't mind both TVs watching the same channel.

To use all threevTV's in my motorhome I have an RF Mogul dish and controller for Dish TV. I use a Hopper 3 and 2 wireless Joey's. I can watch different channels on each TV. Kind of a waste though as I'm widowed so only one person with 3 TV's in a 45' MH.

Amazon has 1 to 2,3, or 4 hdmi switches. It allows multiple tv’s to one hdmi cable. They work well.

in post #11 MR. D explained the dish wireless solution. directtv has the same capability using a genie vcr and the mini genie wireless remotes. the wireless solution eliminate all the wiring concerns except for the cable from the satellite to the vcr.
