Re: Kentucky Derby
Two years ago we stayed at Add-More campground 'across the river' from Louisville, in Indiana. Very short drive to Churchill, or downtown Louisville. A bit cramped, but we didn't have any trouble with four slides and a 40 ft Class A with a tow. Also, several permanent/work campers. As mentioned above, check now, they may be "full up". Good Luck. We have friends in Louisville and they say that the infield at Churchill Downs becomes the "third largest city" in Kentucky on Derby Day...+/-86,000 people.178Views0likes0CommentsRe: closest cg to pensacola naval base

Availability might be the issue though. They stay busy. If it is just for 1 night it might not be worth the hassle. I would check with the campground you might use. Having your granddaughter "sign you in" may be an issue. She may be required to stay with you. Or you can have her reserve the space and she'll be responsible for any issues. I am not sure about the requirements/restrictions. Ask permission or ask forgiveness...your choice.440Views0likes0CommentsRe: San Francisco

It is a parking lot with full hookups, but it was quiet and IF you got an ocean view, that would be nice. We had a space near the entrance and office, but it wasn't noisey. Easy drive into the city. We did the Giants baseball game, the Wharf, and Chinatown. no problems.267Views0likes0CommentsRe: Good Park near Louisville, KY
I would suggest, as mentioned earlier, Add More. It's in Clarksville, IN. We've stayed there three times, although not during Derby week. Easy access to the Interstate and close to Walmart...HEY, try the Clarksville Walmart, maybe they allow dry camping. :-)550Views0likes0CommentsRe: 2007 Sportscoach Elite Slideout Controllers
Well, after considerable research and contact with Forest River/Coachmen, I was able to find all the relays for all four slideouts. Thanks to Mel and his team at Forest River and Sean at Quality RV here in Colorado Springs. 10 of the relays are in the storage compartment behind the passenger dual wheels. The eight relays (four each) for the kitchen and livingroom slides are on the driver's side, in the second compartment back from the front. Since I had no responses, I presume that no one on this site has a 2007 Elite or no one cares where the relays are. No worries....I found them and I'm a happy camper...pun intended.

As the title states, we have a 2007 Elite with four slides. It's been great. However, the kitchen slide recently stopped retracting. It will extend, but won't come back in. We had the motor replaced, and still won't retract. The mechanic tested and says there aren't enough amps to retract as the slide is pulling more power when going in. We are looking for the controller circuits. We couldn't find them near the motor. I called Forest River's Coachmen support. they were very helpful...sortof. The sent me a diagram. It indicates the control circuits should be "up front" somewhere. But I still can't find the controllers. They are supposedly circuit chips on a circuit board, that are interchangeable. If I can find them, I can swap the living room slide chip with the kitchen chip and if the kitchen works, I can but a new chip cheaply. Can anyone please guide me. I would really appreciate any help. You can post on the forum or send me a private message. Thank you. Randy1KViews0likes2Comments
