I have replacement anemometer blades with nut and they actually work unlike the original.  The original will spin on the shaft and not give a correct reading.

This subject has been addressed twice this year, but buried in otherwise titled posts. My purpose is to make a appropriately titled post for future gurus who could use the search engine to find the information. 

Here is a schematic of how the two valves are plumbed to the waste tank. 
   

The first thing to understand is that the grey water does not flow directly into the top of the waste tank. All grey water is plumbed into separate lines that eventually connect and flow into the waste tank through the bottom dump opening in the tank. Look at the diagram and you see how that happens. Compare the diagram to what you see in your wet bay. 

In normal operation, the manual valve is left open, and the air valve is closed. The grey water flows into the waste tank in this configuration. To dump the tank, the air valve is actuated. 

However, there is an alternative setup. Close the manual valve. Open the air actuated valve. In this configuration, black waste will accumulate in the tank, and grey water will continuously flow out the sewer drain. To dump the black tank requires opening the manual valve. 

I hope this helps in understanding a non intuitive setup.

So my DW was letting the blinds down and the large blind over the sofa came tumbling down on the end opposite the motor, I looked and low and behold a plastic piece that slips into the holder was laying on the sill in pieces. So does anyone know exactly what the parts are called and where I can find them?

I have a Link 2000 interface.  I would like to know if I should leave the "charge" setting on all the time whether on shore power or on the road, or running generator.  When I bought the coach, the "charge" was on.  I also have been leaving the "inverter" setting turned on.  The owner's manual for me just is not very clear on that.

Also, just noticed my shore power indicator on the dash went out.  I know from my guages in the overhead that power is coming in.  Before I pull the dash down, any suggestions on the problem, other than maybe wiring at the connection or bad bulb?  If it is the bulb, would Newell be the best source for a replacement?

Thanks on advance!

Gurus,

I upgraded to the Directv sat right after I got the coach 10 years ago.   The antenna is a Winegard SK-3005.  It has been mostly trouble free....until a couple of years ago.

First Directv changed their system and I had to upgrade by adding a SWM8 box to the roof.   That put me back in business...but it has about a dozen additional cable connections.   

Now...I am broken again.  Directv is absolutely no help.  (They want to know my address so they can send a gorilla out to “adjust my antenna”.   

I will call Winegard tomorrow...but expect that I will get a script reader.

I have not been on roof to check the cables...but will also do tomorrow.

So here is my question....

Is it time to dump the satellite?   Has anyone figured out a cool way to stream video using cellular service?  Of course the WiFi that you get in campgrounds is universally terrible...so cellular is only option...right?

Ps.  I suspect that I have a bad LNB but am on the road and have no way to receive one.

So...what are you guys using these days?

Cheers,
Bill

Does anyone know what is involved in removing the fixed portion of the drivers side window?  It's a Storm-tite brand window.  Thepane you look through to see the mirror has lost it's seal and is full of condensation.  I was thinking about getting a "David Root" DIY kit and fixing it myself.

Some of you know that I homebrew. Since moving to Florida, my brews have suffered from the water quality in Florida. I usually buy distilled now, and add back calcium/magnesium and a bit of phosphoric acid to make it useable for brewing. 

Montana has the best beer in the country by far, and it’s because of their water.

So before we leave Montana tomorrow, I am filling the fresh water tank with that Montana gold and smuggling it back to Florida. 

Don’t worry about contamination with it staying in the tank a month, it gets a rigorous boil as part of the brew process.
