RE: Dish portable dish.
If you have a 2016 coach then the Winegard antenna should work with DISH Network.
What type of DISH receiver are you using? If it is a Wally has the firmware been updated to the latest version? When the receiver is hooked up to the antenna do you get anything on the TV screen?
I just take the Wally receiver from the bedroom and put it in the MH. Guy from Dish said to do that if we were not fulltiming now.

RE: Dish portable dish.
Since you have a 2008 model coach the Winegard antenna is not set up to receive the latest DISH Network 8PSK transmission coding and cannot be updated. A new portable will work, I would recommend the Winegard Pathway X2. It is the only portable antenna that can receive both DISH Network western arc and eastern arc satellites.
Actually the info on profile is wrong. The current coach is a Newmar gasser 2016 Handicap 3911
I don't know how to change the info

Dish portable dish.
If one buys a portable dish from Dish, do they set it up for you?
Already have a in motion on the MH roof (Winegard) cannot get it to work. Thinking on a new portable. Don't want to spend that kind of $$ and it not work for some reason.
Or, where/who could make the present one work? I have the Wally receiver.
The rooftop was previously Direct. I changed the dip switches to fit the DIsh requirements

RE: College Football Is Just Around The Corner, Can't Wait!
My Georgia dogs are undefeated. We play 'bama tomorrow in Atlanta for the SEC championship and 'bama is picked to lose. I predict 'bama will get 2 field goals and not score a touchdown on the best defense in the nation.
You sold my alma mater short. This was a rebuilding year and we didn't expect much but Georgia has always fallen short. I doubt if we can beat them twice, being so short-handed. We have pretty much run out of receivers but got lucky enough to face an easy opponent in the semi-final game and won without a passing game. Win or lose, our record against Georgia is pretty impressive.
I graduated in '65 and have been to a lot of games. I haven't seen Bama an underdog many times in the Sabin era but he always seems to win those games. Being an underdog is what Nick calls "yummy rat poison."
I try not to rub it in and if Georgia was not my school, in my state and my home town I likely would not say anything. But despite some really bad officiating we still managed to whip 'bama like a borrowed mule. Bama today is likely the biggest dynasty in college football I have ever seen, including the Bear Bryant era.
Papa said a 'blind hog finds an acorn every once in awhile'. Been 40 years but the dogs did it again. Walk-on quarterback had a dream watching 'bama spank some poor team 20 years ago and that dream of his came to fruition. Best Georgia team I have ever seen.

RE: Custer State Park Sylvan lake 32’ tt
Having worked in the Park for a couple of summers, I suggest you might want to drop reservation at Sylvan and find another CG. We love CSP but the CG facilities are sorely lacking. No sewer and most CG have limited sites with water. Power has come to most now but still some without.
Sylvan Lake CG is very small with very small sites. Pulling that trailer with a van that big is going to be a pain just getting up to the Sylvan Lake area - narrow crooked roads both directions and there is at least one with a tunnel.
Maneuvering inside the CG is going to be REALLY tight if not impossible.
The place is not scenic although it is VERY unusual. Find another CG outside the park and drive to Sylvan and the Eye of the Needle area.

RE: Hwy 321 Columbia to Savannah?
Older federal highway. Couple of smaller towns but also some Americana there. Much of it is 4 lane divided. Not a lot of heavy/fast traffic like you will find on 26 and certainly not like 95. We avoid 95 like the plague
Will be a good ride down to Savannah

RE: Crooker River SP, GA
We stayed there in the summer some years ago. Interesing where the river entered the ocean. The shoreline was several feet - 50-60 feet maybe below the campground and was falling away. A walking trail had disappeared, a sewer line was hanging and useless, several sites were closed because of the erosion.
The bugs had a very healthy appetite.
We went hoping to see a submarine of two, putting to sea or coming into port. I think we were in the wrong area. We have no plans to ever go back in the summer

RE: College Football Is Just Around The Corner, Can't Wait!
"Horsedoc, I have to agree, Georgia at this time is the better team. The SEC right now is in turmoil, Fla., LSU, and maybe others looking at coaching changes and a lot of schools with first year Head Coaches, it may take 2 or more years to get going again.... All I know is my Razorbacks are on a roll, right now. First time in history that they brought home THREE rivalry trophies in one year. The BOOT from LSU, the SEC Classic from Texas A&M, and the Battleline from Missouri. They are bowl bound and the scuttlebutt is a major Florida Bowl on New Years day. We will see how it shakes out after the games today. By the way, I am pulling for Georgia to win all this year...."
"Georgia had a great season but lost the one game they couldn't afford to lose. The playoff selection committee can't ignore Cincinnati like they did UCF 4 years ago. Bearcats look pretty legit and I believe they could hold their own against the perceived Big Boys."
Well, Alabama spanked us like a step child. I am ashamed of the performance of our defense. Kirby lost a lot of confidence the bulldog nation had in him, not to mention the combinded bonus of the nearly a mil if he could pull off the win and then win the National Championship. I will just keep quiet for the rest of the year and watch. There was major money that caused Richt to be fired and Smart hired. Wonder how they feel right now.

Slide shaft ripping bracket Weld?
The bracket/mount holding the motor for one of the rear slides on my Newmar Canyon Star is ripping where the torque from the motor turns the shaft that slides the unit out. I think poor design because a too light gauge metal the bracket is made from.
My grandson thinks we can weld and re-inforce the bracket. I think that would work as well. However, there three slide controller along with a controller for the bed on this coach. I worry about the sensitivity of these controllers and what welding around them might do.
He wants to take battery cables off the coach and starting batterie and place the negative lead for the welder against the bracket we are welding on. I think it can be strapped and reinforced with more steel and bolts and not risk damage to the electricson the coach.
Opinions?
