RE: Masterbuilt or Char Broil
I have a larger electric Masterbuilt and a smaller gas masterbuilt for travel. I love the electric one, the gas one wants to cook a little hotter than I want sometimes but both get the job done. I have no experience with CB either.

RE: My water heater drain plug is metal, is that a problem?
Of the ones that I have seen, Atwood usually has a smaller plastic plug but Suburban has a larger metal one with an anode rod attached

RE: Skool me on cell phone boosters and install tips, please
Waste of money - we have stayed at over 400 parks with Verizon and I can count on one hand the parks where we have not had service
I don't even have service at my home without a booster. Those who have often don't realize not everybody has, regardless the topic.

RE: permanent mount for Yagi antenna
Here's how I mounted my twin Yagi MIMO antennas above my batwing OTA antenna:

I had thought about something like that but I was afraid the yagi antenna and inside antenna would be too close together to work properly

permanent mount for Yagi antenna
I want to mount a Yagi antenna for a cell phone booster somewhat permanently on my 5th wheel. Has anyone come up with an easy inexpensive way to do this and still have the ability to point the antenna? Thanks.

RE: Metal carport RV shelter
The one I have for my 31' fifth wheel is 36'x18' with 12' legs. The center of the carport is 3-4 feet above the roof at the highest point, more on the ends.

RE: Transferring fresh water when dry camping
I bought a 25 gallon spray rig from Northern Tool. I took off the spray hose and installed a quick connect water hose fitting. I took off the alligator clips from the electrical wires and replaced them with a regular 7 blade rv plug. The tank is strapped in front of my fifth wheel hitch. If my camper tank get low, I just hook up my electrical plug and water hose and refill my camper tank. My particular pump is not the fastest but it will empty the tank fast enough for me. I also have 4 of the green 6 gallon jugs that I used to use that I can now just pout into my 25 gallon tank if necessary

RE: Converter replacement
Keep in mind that while your might not generator will not get above idle with the WFCO, putting in one of these better converters will cause your generator to speed up a little for a while, or at least that is my case with my Boondocker 55, 4 batteries and 2000w generator.

RE: Cell Boosting Kits Sold on Ebay
I have a WeBoost on my house and a cheap ebay unit on my shop. I can not really tell much difference other than Weboost will work with any carrier. Most of the cheap ones on ebay are band/frequency specific so you will need to know what band your carrier uses. That probably causes a lot of the returned packages

RE: Using a flag pole to hold cell antenna?
I use 2 sections of 1" pvc conduit cut just short enough to fit in the pass through area. I stick them together and lash it to the rear ladder. It may not be the best but works for me

RE: Have You Installed Your Own Slide Topper?
When my previous trailer was totaled by the insurance company, I pulled off the slide toppers and put them on my current trailer. I had to shorten the tube and awning a little since this is a smaller slide but it was not a big deal

RE: It’s the little things! Gravel Pad for my TT!!
Mice are not as happy about running across a gravel parking area as they are grass so it will help keep the mice out of the camper too
