Re: tailgater and rooftop satellite switching
Thanks for the responses. I considered an AB switch but think there must be something that would not require any action on our part. AB switch would be ideal if we were switching between two active Sat inputs. In our application only one Sat would be sending signal to the Sat receiver at any given time. I am looking for something passive, does not require manual switching and will send the active signal down a single coax to the SAT receiver. bruce237Views0likes0Commentstailgater and rooftop satellite switching
I recently purchased a tailgater when our motosat stopped working. Now have motosat/nomad repaired and would like the option of using either satellite dish. Reaching into the small A/V cabinet to disconnect/connect the coax cable is a pain. Our Camelot has a sat-in connector in the utility bay which comes into the A/V cabinet above the driver seat. How have you solved this issue? Using a combiner or a duplexer or a ????1.5KViews0likes7CommentsRe: Breakdown Information
Had an incident this summer that was a real surprise. We were driving our 2000 Trek in Washington State on a rather steep pass with the outside temperatures in the low 100s. After about 40 minutes of slow continuous climbing, the engine quit! No engine temperature increase (based on gauges), the temp would increase, fan kick in and the temp would drop. But no excessive engine temp. After sitting for about 90 minutes, the engine started and we completed the climb over the pass and down into the valley. Following morning I had a shop replace the fuel filter and check the engine codes with only a voltage drop being indicated. Fuel filter did not appear to be plugged. Engine has run fine every since, including pulling some good passes while pulling our Toad. Particulars: 2000 Workhorse P32 chassis, 7.4 L Vortec gas engine, 32,000 miles, lightly loaded, ie: fuel, water, holding tanks 1/2 full. Fuel pump in fuel tank... sure seemed to be vaporlock but this is not supposed to occur with pressurized fuel lines. add this to your stats wherever it might fit.396Views0likes0Comments
