Back in Tallahassee, Florida

We made it back to Tallahassee Fla from Houston Texas with not problems on our return trip. We will probably be in Tallahassee for 4 to 6 weeks getting more R&D Projects completed at the local manufacturing plants.

Now that we Fulltime in Jayco Pinnacle, we typically stay in a location from 2 to 6 weeks, so we decided to get Dish Satellite service.

Only problem Jayco installs only one cable / satellite connection port at the rear of our 5th Wheel. When we are traveling from location to location we will not setup the Satellite for a overnight stay and will most likely use park cable.

I removed the single cable connection and installed a dual connection and routed another cable up to the entertainment center area, one for the satellite and one for the park cable.

It works great, since the HD Satellite Receiver feeds the HD Port on the TV and the Park Cable feeds the Cable port on the TV we can use the remote to swap between the Satellite feed and the Park cable feed.
