Funny enough, just as I opened this thread on my iPhone I was thinking of how nice it would be to have a mobile version of the site with larger text for older eyes!

There is an upgrade to the big glass picture tube TVs (now about 17 years old) and the current flat screen TVs in our future. Ours all work fine and they do all we ask of them right now, but clearly they are on borrowed time.
My concerns are connections and compatibility when the time comes. My desire to enter the smart phone era of electronic devices runs a close second to my desire to eat bees. We have the flat screen TV and extensive electronics in our home, but none of that equipment uses the inputs our coach TV has. We have a single cable TV connection, where our home TV has a wire bundle sufficient to choke a horse including HTML (whatever that is). When you removed your old style TV’s did you have to have any new wiring, could you use the existing connections, or could you use simple adapters.
Talk slow. I am not a fast learner.

Retirement sounds so final. I choose to use the word unemployed. (but not looking for work)

Over the years in other Prevost or conversion forums there has tended to be a lot of threads and posts about problems with circuit protection. There has been less discussions about issues with transfer switches, suggesting to me that the best solution might be to use a good reliable transfer switch built in, but to use an external circuit protector that the power cord plugs into and the protector plugs into the shore power.
I have had this protector (SSP50) from Progressive Industries for years and it has worked very well, and my transfer switch has never even so much as burped. I suspect as functions get combined the chance of problems rises. My only issue with the SSP50 is the lights which confirm the correct polarity and good ground are very difficult to see in daylight.

We discovered some roof leaks during very heavy rain at a rally in Ohio at the end of September. We are having the roof redone over the winter and some paint work. So far I (Bruce) am very pleased with the shop we are using, but I will wait to offer an opinion/recommendation until the work is done and I can post some photographs to back it up. If you must know sooner … just ask.
We also recently removed two old CRT television sets. I had doors made to cover the openings using walnut veneer plywood for stability with solid walnut trim. The work was done by a guy in Logansport, IN and he did a nice job for a fair price. I (Bruce again) installed the doors with hinges on one edge and 2 ball catches on the other. Very hard to open, so they should stay closed. I mounted a Samsung LCD/LED flat screen TV on each door. The TV’s are just over 1″ thick and I found a simple mount that is under 1″ thick. Recovered a lot of potential storage space inside the cabinets where the TVs were. Now I need to figure out how best to use that space.

Even our pups like to go on a rally

A gathering of coaches.
Why are these coaches all in one spot??????
Because it ain’t a rally if there ain’t a lot of food.

Sorry Debi… you may be the second woman… not sure … I registered a week ago before it was up and running.. LOL … It wasn’t supposed to be operating but it did register me for some reason !!
I did have to re-register yesterday though. We could share the pleasure !! I think this is going to be awesome ! Great to see so many all over the place here already.

I too had a leaking accessory drive seal and replaced just the seal. Figured I would do this first and if the leak continued then I would go with the rebuilt unit. About $40 and several months later everything is nice and dry.
