this afternoon a buddy came by and we ran the cables for the new dish. i wanted another set of eyes on my measurements before i drilled a hole up front on the roof to run the new wires. the dish itself takes one coax and one set of control wires in a cable. i also ran a spare coax to the dish and 2, 14 gauge wires to the dish in case i wanted to put a light on it or a micro switch saying it is down or up. i drilled it just inside the front overhead passenger side cabinet. i also have to put coax connectors on.
i also ran a shielded cat5e along with 3, 14 gauge wires to a metal mount up front where i am going to attach the wifi repeater that michael talked me in to buying....ha he didnt have to talk very hard.
it was getting hot up on the roof of the coach so i still have to finish the wiring and secure it all tomorrow morning when it is cooler. hey, it was mid 80's today.
i will take some pictures in the morning.
