Directv takes the oval dish with a SWM 3 LNB. You can do a roof mount automatic or a ground mount on a tripod. HD uses 3 satellites, 99, 101, 103. You will have to have the HD receiver to match. I have both the roof mount auto and a ground mount for when I'm in the trees. You can receive all the channels you paid for.

When we were still changing out ACs we would charge 1 hour labor per unit. My guys could do most of them in 30-45 minutes plus clean up of 15 minutes. We used a fork lift to get the exchange accomplished.

Its my understanding that rv toilets are designed to be mounted over the black tank with a straight shot down. Any bends will create resistance. We have serviced some trailers with plumbing that has bends and the owners experienced some problems. The cure seemed to be to flush more often with a smaller load.

Make sure the heater valve is shutting off all the way.

Who, What, When, Where or Just Lets Talk
desertdeals69 replied to hermanmullins's topic in General Discussion
Stayed at Pla Mor about 6 years ago in a borrowed motorhome while ours was getting painted down the street at Mike's Custom Painting. Were there 2 12 weeks. Toured Newmar factory. -
Unlimited internet
desertdeals69 replied to chuckconnie's topic in RV Internet to Go/Staying in Touch
I believe mine is 15 gig on the MiFi and 7 gig on my phone hot spot before it slows down. When I asked how much extra the data was I was told $30. I'm at 30 gig now on my MiFi but most of the time the speed is not too bad. Reset in 3 days. -

If you want to know the exact temp install a Scan Gauge, it will give yo the temp in degrees.

There is a step switch near the door, just flip it the other way and the step will close when the door is closed and the engine is not running.

Water Heater Electric Side Failed
desertdeals69 replied to brown774's topic in Systems and Appliances
The heating element should be replaceable. When mine failed it was the thermostat on the tank. Replaced it and it has been working ever since. -
I was at Snowflower TT last week and ran both ACs on 30 amp service just fine.

Make sure it has a shut off valve because if it is left open driving down the road causes the valves to seep and over fill the cells. You might need to see the top of the batteries to know when the cells are full. My recomendation would be to install AGM batteries so you don't have any maintenance.

I would check the stamped date on the case as some retailers affix the date sticker when they want to, such as Sam's Club.

No fittings, they looked like urethane. This was a 2000 Reyco Granning IFS that I bought from Spartan and installed in my 93 Spartan metal spring chassis. I changed the suspension to air and also air brakes.

Sounds like a bad ground.

I had that squeak on my RG IFS and narrowed it down to the control arm bushings. Never did totally eliminate the noise but reduced it somewhat by spraying silicone in the area. It seemed to make more noise when cold.

In 43 years of motor homing in 10+ coaches I have never gone anywhere without a spare. My last two diesel pushers I installed an electric winch to hoist the spare off the ground and mount into place. It fits between the engine and the side, under the propane tank. I use a 1 inch air wrench and have professional tire changing tools if I need to slip on an different tire.

Need moral support: Cummins engine problem

What engine and chassis? -
I would guess on the sofa if it has 3 sets of belts.

Try spraying with silicone spray.

Single or Tandem axles - is one more stable?
desertdeals69 replied to kwl0525's topic in Travel-Trailers
Whether the trailer has 1 2 or 3 axles is determined by the weight. A triple axle trailer is more stable because there is more rubber on the road but it is also a lot heavier. -
At Freightliner factory service I watched them steam clean from the back side. They never did anything from the front.

One thing about the Parker area river is it can be dangerous. 100+ mph boats and tubers don't mix with good results. US Coast Guard has said it is one of the most dangerous waterways in the country.

Might check out Crazy Horse campground in Lk Havasu City.

My True Induction 2 burner has a standard 120 volt plug and runs fine on 30 amp service but if I have both Acs running I have to turn one off. It also runs off the 3000 watt inverter.
