Re: antenna will not pickup ditigal channels
Thanks again for everyone's input. The last reply from wa8yxm hit the nail on the head. First thing I did was to pull the power booster from the wall disconnect the roof coax cable and run a coax cable out the window to the antenna and it worked. I reconnect the coax at the booster and disconnected the cable from the antenna to the first connection into the roof. I ran a new coax cable from there to the antenna and it worked. Problem solved. Again thanks to all. Great site to get problems solved. Wayne582Views0likes0CommentsRe: antenna will not pickup ditigal channels
Thanks to everyone for your replies. To answer a few of the responses. While in Florida I had digital tv. When I left my first stop was Savannah Ga. I had digital tv. My next stop was Myrtle Beach, no digital tv. The next stop was Gettysburg Pa. no digital tv. My question is what happened after I left Savannah and could not get digital tv. Is there an easy way to check and the one person who suggested a cable break, I will check that ASAP. Thank you to all, Wayne PS how do I check the power system?582Views0likes0Commentsantenna will not pickup ditigal channels
This hasn't happened before. On my way back from Florida this year for some reason I could not pickup any over the air channels. The power light is green and I have changed the antenna thinking that may be the problem. Still nothing. I am not a tech person but can do some things. Can anyone tell me a simple way to check that the antenna is working, the cable from the antenna is ok and how I would check the power source. Both tv locations are not working.

Thanks for the info. The problem I'm having now is how to calculate the skewer. I have an email to the satellite dish pointer people, I can't seem to figure that one out, unless someone has that answer for me. Anik-2 and Wildblue are virtually the same satellite for Shaw Direct.

To everyone, the crack was repaired using a expansion joint system. It works the same way as the one that the manufactures have installed just below the bedroom slide on all fifth wheel trailers that I have looked at. If I knew how to attach a picture I would. Thank you for reading my post.411Views0likes0CommentsRe: repair side wall with a stress/expansion joint
Thanks to everyone for your info. 1. The crack is just forward of the big slide on the left side. 2. I would love to see some pictures of your work. 2. If you have a web site for the Montana's that shows the stress point repairs, please let me know. I presently have it in a body shop for installation of a expansion joint. If this works great, if it doesn't I don't know what to do next. Thanks Wayne411Views0likes0Commentsrepair side wall with a stress/expansion joint
Two questions. 1. Does anyone know if someone has repaired a crack in the side of a fifth wheel with a stress/expansion joint? 2. Is the new Saber rv installing expansion joints at the factory and if so who would I contact to ask some questions? Thanks, Wayne3.1KViews0likes9Commentsdiagram of aluminum construction
Can anyone tell me where I would look for a site that would show me exactly how a Forest River fifth wheel is constructed with aluminum framing and siding. I have a split in the side of mine and I believe it is a structural fault with original material. I have had the trailer for 4 years and less than 10,000 miles on it.
