Dish/Satellite HD in rear TV

2014 Bounder 35K
Trying to figure out how to watch rear tv in HD.
Dish Wally up front connected to Pathway X2.
3 TV's - mid coach, BR and outside. Mid coach is always HD. There is an HDMI cable that runs from Wally to mid TV.
All Dish broadcasts in BR and outside from are standard def (which is understandable since it looks like rear tv Dish is supplied via video cables connected from Wally a into a splitter that goes out to BR and Outside TVs via coax).

I brought Wally to back tv, plugged input coax into outlet above tv in bedroom and plugged in coax and HDMI cable coming from BR tv to receiver. I get a pic but there is no service from Pathway X2 antenna to receiver in back. So it appears the coax outlet is not connected to satellite. When I reset Wally, no power to Pathway and thus no signal signal.

Has anyone dealt with this? Is there a splitter hidden somewhere that I can check to see if coax from Pathway is/is not connected to outlet in BR?Pathway was installed by a dealer after we purchased coach. I've made no other changes to Fleetwood's original scheme. THanks much for any help you all can answer.

Sounds like that coax is connected to standard antenna not to the x2.

Since the x2 only supports one satellite at a time you are limited even if you run two coax lines from the x2 to two separate tuners.

If you just want to have one tuner with same programming in HD to all tv's you can run an HDMI cable from near the wally in front to the rear tv, and if desired to outside tv, and install an HDMI splitter box from the output of the wally to feed all three tv's. That is assuming all tv's have an HDMI input, of course.

Hope this helps.

I was having the same issue on my 2014 Discovery. Also, the Roadtrip's restriction to a single satellite would have been a problem even if I figured out the coax/HDMI issue. So... I've decided to ad a second Roadtrip at the rear of the coach with another Wally receiver connected to the bedroom TV.

It is the same. Thanks. I also need to figure out how to run the HDMI to the rear tv.

Thanks - sounds like a good suggestion. I am thinking about a portable I can use with the rear tv and also utilize when trees block my X1.
