- CHV_FRKExplorerThanks... I'll have to get on the roof to check those out. Really itching for another trip soon...
- winklejjExplorerWe also had a leak from the antenna knob. The rubber cap on the roof around the wire had come up. We pushed it back down and used caulk to keep it in place.

I'd like to see that too ! Sounds like a good idea ... - M_GO_BLUE1ExplorerPlease do take some pics if you could eaherrmann...and thanks!
- eaherrmannExplorerWe HAD a drip around the antenna handle, new roof fixed that. :(
CoMoCo, wire your converter between the antenna jack and the splitter, this way the whole trailer will get the new signal, including the bedroom. I was to understand most TVs made after 2005 were digital ready. We just went ahead and put in a DirecTV.
Hey Blue, we purchased one of those Patty O Sunshades and installed it in the grove in the awning. We then bungie cord the corners to the ground. Works pretty well in stiff winds. Also found that we can roll up awning with sunshade in place, can't even tell it's rolled up inside it. If you want pics I’ll take some. It even cut down on that pesky mold we get every year. - L_MMusicExplorerCHV_FRK,
Our antenna leaked from a cracked seal. Nice little cup of water on DH in the middle of the night! Repaired at dealership.
I need to recaulk the shower doors (or wait to get them done at our next appointment.) Any tricks I need to know? - CHV_FRKExplorerI would think you could anchor them to the ground. As long as your not pulling very hard. You just need to make sure it gives if it needs to.
- M_GO_BLUE1ExplorerAs most of you who have the 35RLTS design know with the electric awning there is no wind sensor and no rain sensor (the rain I can just simply retract a little and the puddle dumps by itself...as for the wind in high winds the awning gets rolled back up BUT in the light winds has anyone found a way to put a little weight on each of the arms to at least keep it frombeing blown back up? I want to be careful not to damage the arms but with even light winds these days causes us to be unable to use the awning...
- CoMoCoExplorerWe have a 2006 Designer and are looking to get a digital converter box as we will be travelling to the US in July and will be staying at some parks without cable. My question is - how have you installed the digital converter box in your Designer?
For example, did you wire it between the wall and the Home Theatre/ DVD player so that it feeds into the home theatre? Or did you put a splitter at the wall outlet so the digital converter goes direct to the television?
Thanks for your help! - loydtExplorerMine has dripped a few times on the bed. My dealer took care of it. The antenna on our 5ers will pick up digital channels. No add on is needed.
