Sisco,
When we ordered our coach we had Newmar wire the TV;s so that the Bedroom and outside TV were connected together and the front TV's were together.
This way we can watch different programs if we want to.

Tom....just to be clear, even though you tied the two fronts together and the bedroom and outside together, you neglected to state that it requires TWO receivers to watch different channels. This is what the OP's question was partially about.....don't want to confuse him.

Don is correct as usual.
I did not mean to confuse the issue but was letting the OP know that the option is available when ordering a new coach. If not there is no way to separate the inside TV’s later

Does anyone know if we will ever get ABC,CBS and NBC back when using Directv? I assume Dish has the same restrictions regarding the networks.

Do you have a home account where locals show up?

Dutch Star Don,

When you say you get the west coast feed what do you mean?

As far as I know the network package out of NY or LA have gone the way of the dodo. Are you still getting LA network locals anywhere you are parked over DirectTV?

I can't speak for Don but I get FOX east and west coast at this time.

Dutch Star Don · 10-08-2020, 07:17 PM

I get ABC, NBC, CBS for the west coast anywhere in the country. The only thing I lose when we get over 200 miles away from home, is three spot beamed L/.A. channels.

I live in texas so not local. Get Fox everywhere plus my home local when we are with in 200 miles.

Don- Since I seem to have decent Directv satellite service and Winguard Carryout reception when under trees, You are undoubtedly correct that I should stay where I am. I know nothing about Roku, streaming, or any of the other new tech TV deals. In fact when I ordered my 2015 DS all I knew was I wanted Directv and outside compartment connections for the stand-alone dish when needed on account of trees. Boy was I ever nieve and way out of my league. I had the dealer order and hook up my satellite receivers, one in bedroom and one up front. Since my previous 2004 coach had the old fashion selector box to choice which TV you wanted on which receptor I had just assumed the 2015 front and rear TVs were hooked on separate lines.
I sure went into that new 2015 blind even tho I thought I had done lots of research.
Appreciate your warning about the Roku. I do have good reception on my Verizon phone and also use the Mobley for Wifi on the computer.
I continue to feel like I traded off a Model T vehicle and stepped into a new Corvette.

I have one other question. With our HD Winegaurd on our 2015 Bus we had two coax coming from the Satellite so we could hook up both coax's to the 2 inputs on our HD DVR. We could only watch one channel, but we could watch one channel and record another channel at the same time. We are taking delivery of our new Mountain Aire and I see two outlets but one says for dish network which we don't have. Does anyone know if there are 2 hookups or know anyone at the factory I could talk to about this?

Thanks,

Ben
