I tried the Over the air (OTA) antenna today and it would not move using the buttons in the cabinet where the DVD player is located. Since it is over 15 years young I figured there is probably a short somewhere or maybe in the switch. I will troubleshoot that one. What OTA antenna do you recommend? I figured I would just mount a newer OTA antenna on the same mast.
What stationary (not in-motion) HD satellite antenna system would you recommend for Dish Network HD channels. I like the Winegard Travlr but not sure if there is another better option out there (the threads here are several years old).
Our 1982 Newell with a 6V92 has a Leece-Neville model 3425J Alternator. The Alternator was been rebuilt in 2010 at a cost of $425.00. It required a new Stator, Rotor and Regulator due partially to a previous repair shop loosing some parts.
It is best to have a Leese-Neville Dealer do the rebuild because these are no longer in production. The 6V92 (and possibly the 8V92 uses this Marine Grade Gear Driven Alternator.
I am making this post for future reference.
Replacement Viton Seal from Detroit Diesel #23508977, and get a Flange Gasket #23509123.
Do all Newells have automatic slack adjusters or did the earlier units have to crawl under and manually adjust?
Monday had the generator radiator cooling fan motor replaced at Newell. It was previously replaced by them in May. All covered by their one year parts and labor warranty from Newell.
On Tuesday when I started the generator, the indicator light that tells you the generator is running failed to light up even though the generator was running. Also the 4 lights that indicate power is going to all 4 legs also failed to light up. And the amp meters all showed zero.
I reset all the breakers on the generator. And in the back of the coach.
Another thing is the 110 fan the provides air to the generator compartment was running but the 220 radiator cooling fan that was just replaced was not.
I restarted the generator several times same result. I let it sit for an hour went back out restarted it and everything worked fine. Called Newell they suspected a bad breaker.
Returned to Newell this morning they replaced the breakers. This afternoon same thing happened except when I restarted the generator everything returned Except a 110 leg. Followed shortly by the other three legs quitting.. Restarted again and all legs have ran great for the last 7 hours.. No issues..
Does anyone have any ideas?

Hello Everyone!
My name is Brian Stanton. I am the Sales and Marketing Manager for American Fleet Inc. We are a Detroit Diesel Engine Specialist located in Springfield Missouri. We have been in the bus engine re-manufacturing business for over 35 years. We are a entertainer and charter bus repair facility that only works on buses! Our mechanics have been with the company for more than 20 years and are "seasoned" bus mechanics that know there way around a bus engine.
We build the engines (with Genuine Detroit Diesel parts) at our facility and ship nation wide. We also offer installations at our facility as well. We offer towing if a trusted mechanic is not available in your area.
We build each engine to your engine serial number and ship 3-4 days once we receive your order. We are saving our clients an average of $8,000.00 to $10,000.00 per engine versus any local Detroit Diesel authorized shop. We also carry Detroit 2 cycle engines as well.
Please checkout out our website link below, and visit us on Face Book for pictures from our daily builds for coach and charter bus companies that come to us for installation. If anyone has questions, please feel free to contact me at your earliest convenience.
Thanks
