Winegard and sim cards
I have a Winegard WiFi mounted on the top of my 5th wheel. Spectrum is my home internet, phone and TV. Does anyone know if Winegard is compatible Spectrum mobile phone? I would like to be able to stream instead of using our Dish playmaker. I was on hold for 2 hours with Winegard before I hung up.613Views0likes1CommentWiring for DISH Playmaker into RV
I recently switched from Direct TV to DISH. I have a 2015 Alpine with factory installed outputs for cable and satellite. This worked fine for my Direct but doesn't work for DISH. Currently I have to run the wire through the closest windo to the receiver. When I get back to my home I'm hoping to somehow change this to not run through the window. Has anyone else run into this problem and able to solve it?1.2KViews0likes2CommentsReplacement awnings
I need to replace the awning on my 5th wheel. I'm looking for a material that will clean easily especially from environment staining. I'm also hoping to find one where I can set the wind speed to retract automatically. Any suggestions and help will be appreciated.

I've always used http://www.directv.com/DTVAPP/customer/dishPointer.jsp to set the elevation and azimuth settings on my dish while traveling. All I needed was the zip code. This site no longer works. After 2 hours on the phone and internet with Direct I have no where else to turn to find these numbers. Can anyone be of any help?

I have a 2015 Alpine 5th wheel. It was at the repair shop for 4 months after returning from a 3 month trip this winter in UT. When we brought the trailer home the awning which is white on the underside is really stained and dirty. After trying every cleaning product on the market it is still stained. Is there anything to get it to be white again? Is there any awnings that do not get the stains on the white side?3.3KViews0likes17CommentsWinter Camping
The end of January I will be pulling my 5th wheel from NC to Utah. I am thinking of going on a southern route to avoid traveling on I70 through the passes of CO. I would like to camp at our night stops. I have never winter camped. How do I keep my water lines from freezing during the day while I am driving? Would I have to put anti freeze in every morning? When I get to Salt Lake the 5th wheel will be parked until the middle of March when I will start a 6 week camping trip in southern Utah and AZ. Any information on routes, campground availability and freezing problems will be helpful. When we get to Utah the trailer will be parked for 6 weeks before we start camping in southern Utah and AZ.1.4KViews0likes3Comments
