If you remove the two pucks on the roof that the coaxial comes out of the black wire will be taped to one of them. I just installed my Dish 1000. If you position you unit right there will be enough to plug directly into the unit without splicing. If you do decide to splice you can get telephone wire splices at most hardware stores. Make sure heat shrink them and caulk the ends. Atom ant has good pictures of his install that really helped me. I think it is the care and feeding forum under Dish Traveler.

Good Luck

Ya if they still do it like mine was is 2013, it was taped to one of the coaxes. It's the exact same control cable that comes with the Winegard Travelr antenna.

Not sure. I just sent Andy a note and asked him to check the photo albums. I can follow your link but there are still only 10 there. Not sure what's going on. Need someone above my skill level .......

So it would seem that you can click on my name at the left, select my public profile, and my albums will show up on the right. Two are visible, or you can select to show all albums and it will take you to a new window.

The antenna info is under the Atom Ant SK-1000 album. Once open, if you click on the first picture it will open into a slide show with captions that explains what I was doing.

Brad,
Great pictorial and explanation of your install!

Thanks!

Ken

PS, just an FYI for those that maybe looking at this wiring diagram, I have said before, not all are wired like this. In my '14 GK, there is a direct (orange) cable run from the living room to the outside tv. Unlike Brad's, my dish supplied splitter would live in the living room and feed the outside tv. The balance of the installation would be the same!

Hopefully anyone that wanted to look at the Dish install photos is finished. I noticed the website random photo draw was pulling random pictures from that album and sticking them at the top of the forum and they are pretty boring for anyone not installing a dish, so I turned them off from public view.

If the subject comes up again or if someone sends me an IM and wants to look at them I can turn it back on. I'm sure there are some nice dancing girl pictures folks would rather look at than schematics.
