Ah, so I'm not the only one with the mysterious patch cable!

Thank you jsb5717 for your help and time, with your diagram and info that the Winegard switch is a toggle between the OTA Antenna and the CableTV/Satellite. My RV friends told me incorrectly it was a signal amplifier for the antenna and I should keep it on. Sure glad you gave me the right info!

Your help was the missing piece to the puzzle that got me on the right track so I can map out what I believe is the correct wiring diagram.

I have cable TV on all the TVs with the Winegard set to Off. When I set the Winegard to On, it should give me the signal from the OTA antenna on the roof but I'm getting no channels. I'm going up on the roof sometime in the future to check the coax cable connection. For now, the cable TV is good enough.

Have a blessed day,

Scott
