Satellite receiver HDMI tie-in location on the 2017 FC?

[DarrellT]

Getting ready to add the satellite receiver to the overhead compartment in the new 2017 FC26U. Can I assume that there's a hidden HDMI switch located in the compartment behind the DVD player where I can jack in?

I have 2017 26U and looked into having RF modul Satellite antenna mounted on roof. I removed the two screws on side of box holding the blue ray player. Under that box is 2 way splitter from blue ray player and coax cable Sat labeled as well. I need to have aluminum bracket fabricated to fasten the Satellite antenna to . I have 2 ac units, not much room left on roof.

The blu-ray output goes to an HDMI splitter and then to both TV's. When I added sat TV, I replaced the blu-ray with the sat receiver and plugged its output to the HDMI splitter. Now we have sat TV in both TVs

If you are wanting both look at the HDMI Matrix box at Monoprice. There's a few people on here who have used that to put multiple HDMI sources in to the splitter so they can have Apple TV + BluRay + Sat + Game system, etc.

I installed a 3 switch box switch, that allow 3 different sources, I plan to use it for Blue ray player, Chrome cast and Satellite receiver.The switch comes with a wireless remote to switch between the sources, and I was able to tuck all wire under the blue ray self.
