Other TV jack plates are mounted in various
locations throughout the coach. Some of these
wall plates are not readily visible and may be in
one of the following locations.
• Beneath passenger side overhead cabinet.
• In front overhead TV cabinet, if equipped.
• In the flip-down entertainment tray on the
outside of the coach.
Checking Signal Performance
The TV signals available to an RV are entirely
dependent on its location in relation to the trans-
mitter. Signals may vary from strong to no usable
signal at all. We recommend that the TV system
be checked out in an area known to have good TV
reception.
To check the antenna amplifier, raise the an-
tenna, select a TV channel and rotate the antenna
for best picture. Then turn off the amplifier pow-
er switch. If the antenna amplifier is working

properly, the TV picture will now be degraded
(snowy). When you turn the switch back on, the
picture should again be sharp.
PHONE AND CABLE TV-
HOOK-UPS
Some models are equipped with ex-
ternal connections for telephone and
cable television. The connectors are
located in the shoreline cord/sewage
dump compartment.
NOTE: For coaches without the video control
center option, be sure the TV antenna
amplifier switch is turned OFF while
connected to cable. The antenna amplifi-
er will make the cable TV signal snowy.

VIDEO CONTROL CENTER -

Optional
The optional video control center allows you
to switch the antenna, cable TV or VCR signal to
any TV set location in the coach.
This means one person can watch a ball game
coming in on the roof antenna on the bedroom
TV while another person watches a cable TV pro-
gram or a video tape on the VCR on the front TV.
Also, two people can watch different programs
on the two TV's while taping a third program on
the VCR.
