appreciate the ideas gents, for sure will do the 'previous WEEK' drain approach next time
despite Old Blister/Sweet Bride's verbal assurances of intent, now 6+ months post purchase she STILL avoids the initial 'First Driver Moment'. I'm sure she can do it fine, but as the grand daughter of Irish immigrants, she remains a woman of Strong Opinion....
I did solve a large noise component from the stove top cook rack but installing a prefab cutting board designed with special grooved rubber mounting feet on the rack.
Our last outing, I was totally surprised by a sudden LOUD harsh rumbling noise, coinciding with driving across a new overpass section. By the time I interpreted the noise as related to tires/concrete surface, we crossed onto the old surface, and immediate quiet returned.
The RV is amazingly (mostly) quiet on good asphalt. Most any county or state highway, as well as concrete freeways, are very satisfactory. Some of the smaller county or city streets cause a LOT of general small-item noise.
I made the trip to a tekkie consult on the TV reception. He fiddled with some remote buttons, and found a tiny switch on the antenna plug connecter, and found a way to load a zillion (OK, maybe about 20) stations. Said it would likely have to be done each time/location. Came home. Turned on. Zippo blue screen/no signal again.
Have been too busy to do what he showed me, but will get around to it soon. Did find the amazingly well hidden external cable connector.
We are finally in the hard-frost/around freezing temp first time this season.
Wondering whether others have used such as small electric space heater on low for humidity control?
