Pennie67, If you want to get rid of the remote electronics and add a regular thermostat, it can be done easily if you have a small amount of electrical and mechanical ability.
PM me if you want to try it, I'll show you what I've done to several. It will cost you about $12 for a couple of relays on ebay and then the price of a thermostat from Lowes. A cheap Honeywell thermostat is much better than the ones that I've replaced in RVs.
Another way would be to replace the ceiling unit with a manual one. It may be available, I didn't check on your model, but all that I've worked on(maybe 8 or 9 units) used different ceiling units to make it a manual, wired, or remote controlled system. The roof unit was the same.
