What did you do to your Class C MH today???

This is always a fun thread to watch in other forums, so I thought I'd start one here.

Went camping today, out in front of the house. Woke around 6:30AM, felt a little warm, looked at the ceiling fan, not moving, looked at the clock radio, nothing. Great no power. The DW work later and said that she thought it was a little thick in here. With her trying to get over a good case of the flu. So I fired up the C and brought it around to the front of the house, the DW struggle to get out there. It sure was nice to have all the comforts of home, power came on around lunch time. So tomorrow I will clean the holding tanks. Now the rain has moved on, but the hot weather is moving in. 90 tomottow, 96 Thursday, can't wait.

Installed a hitch style bike rack for the kids' bikes. Swagman Turbo 2 bike hitch from Camping World for $129.99.
This thing is heavy duty and very well manufactured. I recommend this to anyone. They have another model that is $40 more, but no need for hook clamps to the bike frames, the included strap works just as good.

I'm so excited to finally be able to post in this thread! I've been watching it for months and now finally have a Class C to do things to.

This part's not so exciting....I got new to me bedding that more closely matches the dusty rose and dusty green late 80's motif. Thank you, Value Village! And I read the manual for how to set the clock in the radio (why does it take a manual now to set a clock??)

That's it so far, but I'm looking to spend quality time with my MH as soon as school is out.

For month's, I have had trouble getting a 100% satellite radio signal in my motor home. (the antenna was just on the front hood) Last week, I climbed the roof to look for a better spot. I found a place that I could slide in a 1/4 inch metal washer where it would not move. I just stuck the magnetic antenna on it and all is good. :C

Replaced fresh water inlet (hose adapter with check valve.
Also had MH washed at a Blue Beacon car wash. Was pleased with the result.
Does anyone know of a chain like Blue Beacon that is wide spread through out the US?

Bow to stern cleaning, and then I changed the oil.
I couldn't change the filter though, the previous owner had overtighted the filter and I could not get that sucker to budget even just a bit. I'll wait until this fall, and take it to a Lube joint to loosen. The filter looks new anyway, but dammit, I just don't sleep as well at night knowing I have a used filter on there. 😞

Put another coat of white rubber paint on the metal roof.Tomorrow I have to fix some tail & clearance lights that I saw weren't working tonight. :S

Ran the generator for an hour, steam cleaned all the carpet.

Today I removed the Winegard crank up satellite dish and put on a new Winegard Sensar III off air antenna. It was a simple install, but was a lot of work on the roof. That dish must have seen some strong winds because the fiberglass was shredded in a half moon radius. I used an entire tube of lap seal on it.

I added a wingman at the same time, but I must say I have no idea how Winegard can claim it improves DTV signal up to 100% when it has no active connection to the bat wing at all.

Otherwise I think I have heat stroke which is ok I guess for a hard days work. 🙂

We like Manatee Springs State Park a lot!
Adding MaxxAirII covers to two FanTastic's, I drilled for the machine screws, nuts, lock washers and flat washers that MaxxAir supplied. Required a lot of dismantling to get the nuts and washers on. In one case the washers wouldn't go on so I just drilled for a self tapping screw. Wish I'd done that for all eight holes. I spoke with an RV tech and he said he never does the nut/bolt routine. Glad you trimmed the sealant. We had water running into the vent area because sealer was so thick it caused puddling at the hinge.

Added 2 MaxxAir II vent covers.

1 over the front Fanfastic fan and 1 over the Elixr vent in the Bath. The one over the Fantastic Fan I utilized factory screws (backed out) the one over the Elixr there are no screws..... so I had to drill 4 3/16" diameter holes on the side flange of the aluminum vent (as per MaxxAir instructions).

Really strange on the elixr that Winnebago only uses sealant (plus the 4 screws from the inside in the plastic trim to weak to realy pull any load). The sealant Winnebago uses on the roof is a Silicone based but not your Home Depot / Lowes grade. Even though this sealant was put in plaqce in 2006 it is flexible and I could slice it like cheese cutting layers until it was level with the flange to keep the bracket flush.

Just got done adding 2 vinyl mini blinds to the bunkhouse on the Supernova. Much nicer than the pieces of fabric Gulfstream velcroed on.
