Video in 19'

Perhaps I have missed it, I was wondering if there is a document outlining the video in a 19'. I would assume there is a connection for cable in, and if you have a antenna a way to switch between the cable in and the antenna. I was also wondering is there a video switch or splitter? How many tv jacks can there be?

Thanks...Dan

If you read the option list, TV ready- $125 allows you to connect to campground cable and includes a 120v outlet next to the coaxial plug, adding tv antenna, is another $250 which allows ota broadcast. If you want 2 locations then it is another $125 plus $375=$500. Note if you want to use 12v television then they will substitute 12v outlet for 120v outlet- but you must specify.

thx for the reply, i haven't decided on a location inside, ( bed end or dinette), definitely want one on the outside ( college football in the fall). is there a switch to select the antenna vs the cable onnection on the outside?

The King Jack antenna control box includes a switch, a splitter and two coax outputs.

One coax output is on the face of panel the to connect to TV1. The second coax output is not visible, but can be wired to a second location in the trailer.

The switch selects between the antenna and the external coax input to the trailer, and drives both TV outputs with the same signal.

The follow is from the King Jack owner's manual, which can be found here: https://kingconnect.com/wp-content/u...Compressed.pdf

Have the exact connections with the Wineguard . You can install 2 TV's also .with a amp booster . Looking back now I would have Escape install the TV install without the antenna .Could always add antenna on a higher pole outside when you wanted TV . Most campgrounds we have been to offer cable and we don't even bother with over air TV unless we are boondocking . Pat

That is what I did in Prairie Schooner, just the cable connection, I can always add an external antenna if the need ever arises and I even have one from an old camper, on a 10' plastic pole.
Otherwise I use the cg cable or watch dvd's.
