Outside coax connector
I have installed a plate outside that I connect my dish cable to. I drilled a hole thru the wall and had a short coax inside.
Now my problem is the cover over the outside connector broke off and it is getting wet - and I think doesn't work anymore. I have searched the net for this connector and outside plate but can not find it. I only find standard inside connector plates.
ANyone have the proper name to search for or a link to one on Amazon or elsewhere? Thanks.

Searched Amazon for RV coax cable inlet. Brought up a host of possibilities. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=rv+coax+c...s_ts-doa-p_2_7

It would not be pretty - but you could cut a male end off of a piece of coax (very short tail) and tape the cut end up - then screw the male end onto the outlet on the RV skin. My Dish tailgater has a cap on one of the inputs…no idea where you can buy a metal cap like that.

I used one like the 4th down on the Amazon link above for years for my Dish antenna. The white one with the rubber cap.

Kyle switch plates has a ton of this stuff. I put on a flush coax on my slide for direct access to satellite box.

Doing my quarterly roof inspection this morning before the sun started beating down. Noticed the Wineguard 360+ has a stainless steel coax connector cap on the side of the unit. I'm guessing that is a convenience connection for those who had rather have a roof mounted satellite dome. Cap was good and tight and was surprised to find that it wasn't made of some sort of cheap plastic.
