Antenna Amp Switch on RPOD 190

I have an RPOD 190 (2019 model), and the on/off switch and LED indicator lamp for the TV antenna amplifier are mounted on the wall in the "bedroom" area at the front of the trailer on the wall between the bathroom and the bedroom. It's very inconvenient to get to -- you have to climb on the bed to reach the switch.

The antenna (Contin.us CA-1000) is on the roof near the entry door, so I don't see the logic for putting the on/off amp switch at the other end of the trailer. The TV cable jack on the wall in the bedroom area isn't in a good location to try to mount a TV anyway.


Does anyone have an idea as to why Forest River decided to put the switch there? Has anyone moved it to a location on the wall close to the TV (near the entry door)?

I've changed just about everything else on the 'Pod, so I guess moving the amp switch wouldn't be that much more trouble!

I have a 2019 R Pod 190, and I had some antenna/ tv issues to get a signal. The problem I found was the cable input goes only to the amp switch in the bed area. They wired the Living area incorrectly, you have to remove radio to access the spliter. It has to have a power pass through splitter to work properly, the antenna on the input of the splitter, and the cable from the amp on the power pass thru output side of the splitter. The radio antenna connected by coax cable also to the splitter was shorting the signal. Once I removed the radio antenna coax, and correctly wiring the switch in the bed area the tv's worked.
