Cable TV...2009 CCD...how is it hooked up?

[lvcat2004]

This was our 3rd trip in almost brand spanking new 2009 25' International and the first trip where I even thought of hooking up cable.

I'm not really into watching TV when we are on the airstream, but my team was playing on ESPN and had to get cable.

I hooked up cable to the external cable input, and expected it to work, but somehow it did not.

The back of our LCD TV has a cable plugged in, probably from the antenna, and RCA cables most likely for the DVD.

I was not sure if the cable inlet on the exterior is already wired for cable TV, and if it's a matter of configuring my TV for proper input or not. I tried, and it didn't work, so I pulled the cable manually into the cabin and plugged directly to the TV and it worked.

There is a cable connection just under our dinette table that says "satellite in" and something else I can't remember, and they are connected together with a short jumper....

Is there anyone who has experience/wisdom to share on one of these late model airstreams....thanks.
