Trish,

Most coaches have a switched/amplified connection from the roof-top off air antenna with the "shore cable" connection. Look for a similar arrangement for the satellite antenna wiring if you have a pre-wired rooftop satellite location.

On my 2007 Tour Master, there are two F-style coax connectors on a plate just under the Winegard control panel -- one marked "roof top sat" and the other marked "tri-pod sat" only one gets the coax connected to the receiver at a time...

What model and year motor home do you have??
