Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Satellite connection on my 5er
Permalink  

I have a satellite dish that has 2 cables coming out of it. How do I connect it to the single satellite connection on the side of my 5er? It is a Dish Network 500. Thanks for any advice.

Just hook either one to your 5ver but you will only be able to feed one TV.If you want to feed a second TV you can run the other cable to a seperate reciever through a window.

Thanks Racerguy,

I was under the impression that each cable from the dish was for low and high number channels.

Each cable distributes channels from both 119 and 110 satellites.
