RE: Dish receiver in class a as 3rd room?

Just a note, I use the Dish Net, and if your going to be using a DP Pro Receiver, Then you will need the DP Pro LNB, esp on there New Rigs that are actualy two recievers in on, meaning it can be used on two televisions at the same time on one receiver.

RE: VEHICLE TO BE TOWED BY CLASS A MH

Have you tried towing it. True there more work getting on the dolly, but not the horror some would have you believe. I've done it both ways, dolly and tow bar, I prefer the tow bar, when I take my Nissan, I use the dolly. JM2Cents Bill

RE: Use of standard 20 lb. LPG tank in a Forest River Sunseeker

Most Suburban gas supply stores, sell a what is called " Extend a Stay" or you can order off the net. It allows you to tap into your RV LP gas supply, and add an carry tank, 20 or 30 lbs. I believe they run about $100.00 to purchase. Bill

RE: Idiot guages?

There so simple even a Caveman Can Read them.
Actually I think there referring to the light, that tell you that car is now running so hot that what you see around you is steam. There not in reference to the graduated Gage. Just my two cents. Bill

RE: Harbor Freight 45W Solar system

I gained about 40 amps (amp hours) a day. I don't know how you could do that. A 45w panel is about 3 amps at best for maybe 4 hours, then much less than that for the other 5 or so hours. Maybe 20 on a real good day.
Anyway OP, it's a very low wattage system for not much more than battery maintenance.
You might want to do math again, 4.5 Amps X 8 hours in the desert, Perhaps another 4 hours of reduced sun coming and going. 2 Amp per hour. Good for about 44 amps. if I don't walk in front of them. LOL.. Bill

RE: Buying an RV on the internet

I would be nice if you forwarded all information to the Nevada Better Business. Asking them is this how business is done in Nevada, bait and switch business. I'm sure they'll be getting a call. Who knows, you might even getter a better deal out of after all the dust settles. JM2Cents Bill

RE: Harbor Freight 45W Solar system

I used one last winter, outside of Yuma while boon-docking. It works, but I used the generator to cap up the batteries. I gained about 40 amps a day. But I do like my TV. It also depends what you plan on using them for. They are a low grade solar cell, but there cost is well set at $199.00 or so. There regulator is garbage. Had to pick up another at Camping World for under $15.00.

RE: Straight talk wireless

Guess you can't argue over the $30.00.... LOL Bill :E
Kinda of like the time I went with LINGO VOIP phone service, 8 hours of talk to India, they finally hit the right combo to get my phone to work. Only problem was my ISP configuration in the router file was so messed up, I had not internet. Another 3 Hours to get that and working. Then every fifth phone call I had to go down and rest there modem. After a month I canceled with them. Two years later the call me up, and want me to pay my bill for the last two years or it's going to collection. LOL.... I told them good luck on a thirty day contract. Where it states if payment isn't received your contract is canceled and service will be terminated. That told me that didn't apply because when I canceled my account I used the wrong phone number when I called in. I just hung up, still waiting three years later for there collection group to call. Bill.

RE: Norton Anti Virus Software has gone mad!!!

Just a note, I tried to uninstall Nortons without he tool, and turned my hard drive in to image drive. Every time time I would delete something, it was gone. Then restarting my computer, it would be there again. It wouldn't even let me reformat. Had to take it to a computer shop. Never again. Bill

RE: Quartzite gathering still going strong?

I never called on any service, but from what I have seen, there are all types of people running around doing all kinds of things, from broken windshields, Venation blinds, plumbing, hand washing, and there even a few shops that stay there year around. Bill

RE: Microwave broke, do i need a special one to replace it with?

Any microwave that is 110 volt. But you will find it's the depth of the microwave. The ones in the RV's are generally one inches less in depth. Measure depth of the present Microwave. It the replacement is the same or you don't mind it sticking out. All will be good to go.

RE: Coach battery problem??

Did you check the cells with Hydrometer, that would tell you right away. But I know from times past, when the terminal post rots off, it's makes the battery a good candidate for replacement. Your coach is 2001, how old are the batteries. Bill.

RE: Tornado at end of empting only?

Here is the way I do mine. I install a clear plastic elbow from Walmart. Pull the dump valve. As it's emptying, I hook up the water hose to Tornado. Buy this time the tank is usually emptied. I turn on the Tornado, when the water starts to flow clear, I close the dump valve and dump the Gray tank. When that is drained, I close the valve and reopen the black tank. If that is still clean, then I'm done and shut the dump valve, turn off the Tornado and put the hoses away. Bill
Any other personal stuff you like to know.

RE: Wal Mart CG, I thought

Kind of reminds me when I pulled into a Walmart up in Maine. There was a 30 foot or so travel trailer, all by it's self. Had shrubs in those two foot pots, along the front, a couple of lounge chairs, a 10 X 8 or so rug by the front door. Around 7 o'clock that night he drives in with a women, stays for an hour or so, then leaves, an hour or so later comes back with a different women for an hour so then leaves. I think it would be fair to say, that if I were the manager of a Walmart and saw my parking lot turning into a campground with slides out, chairs and what have you going on, I would be having signs made up Banning Overnight Parking.

RE: Water Pressure

I believe you will find the PEX tubing used in your water system is rated at 60PSI, you will also find the faucets will open themselves at 60PSI. A good Setting for you pressure is 45 to 50 PSI. Bill

RE: New RV Owner...Help!

I have to agree with denbroncs. But having a coach of that old, and in your driveway, is half the battle. What you will want to do next is go threw one item at a time seeing how it works and making sure it works. You might find a friend that knows what is what so say. Checking the from the entry door in. Waste lines, dump valves, water tanks, hot water heater and every thing else. JM2Cents Bill. Been there and done that to many times. LOL.. Good Luck
