This is getting pretty messy!
There are folks using work-arounds and there are folks trying to work within the given parameters. Mixing this information can seriously muddy the waters.
With DTV, we have been able to get DNS channells pretty much forever. DISH provided this service for awhile but they stepped on themselves years ago by providing DNS to those who did not qualify. They lost the ability to provide DNS to anyone. DTV kept doing things the right way and they have provided their customers with DNS programming for over 20 years (prior to that I received FL Networks everywhere in the US). When DTV turned on the spot beams, we were all left baffled but figured it out pretty quickly.
Today, things are what they are. “As of today”, it appears that if your account is registered (service address, not billing address) in the NY or LA service area you will be able to get that 1 Coast service. That will likely change if AT&T follows through with the current threat.
I believe that my full-timer RV waiver exempts me from the loss of DNS but what the hell do I know. What I do know is that having satellite TV without ANY Network programming is pretty much useless to me. I am hoping to get some clarification between now and June 1.

It could be used for the “jump start” feature.

This is exactly what I’ve been looking for. Any issues with installation fit? Am I correct in assuming you did not need the anti-flicker harness?

Personally I cannot think of a safer place than in the coach. Not only is the risk to others reduced or diminished, but I am safer because nobody can get in my space without an invitation.
A lot of rules and decisions are made without a lot of thought.

Jon! they seem to work ok, is it the plunger that is pushed down that controls the ratchet? also the rubber booties are not in good shape, can you buy new rubber?

Don have a new dryer on mine but have an extra to put on. Chuck, you crawled under coach with condenser bay door closed and could see floats? Mine is sealed from bottom. Jon, running the same expansion valve from R22 but have the 134 valves to install if needed. Have run R22 expansion valves for 7 years and all was good. Need a tent camper i guess.

What the ball is doing is secondary to what the temp of the air is coming out the vents. I’m also watching my gauge set, shooting the temps(IR temp gun) of the heads with the unloader valves, and shooting the temps of the low and high pressure king valves/lines. Blowing cold air(<50*f) is primary.

Chuck, with the condenser door open, the freon in it is not being cooled efficiently and turned from a gas back into a liquid because the condenser fan(s) aren’t drawing air thru the condenser.
What I do, is run the system for a little while with the door closed, then quickly open the condensor door and take a look see. -
Been thinking about the same with the mini splits. Had a 14′ x 40′ sun room out at the ranchito that was all windows and the 2 ton Mitsubishi mini split was awesome,, heating and cooling. Friend of mine had a Eagle Bus and had a 3 ton Home Carrier unit in his. There are alternatives for sure. Just knowing how far to cobble up your newer coaches is the key. My antique Coach wouldn’t matter.

Don:
Thanks for you input, always good stuff. Oil was changed out in Dec 2019 @ Prevost Winter Garden when the compressor seal was changed out. They also had to do something with the clutch. Would have to look up the receipt, old mind doesn’t retain info that long LOL
Condenser door was completely opened in the service position while filling. Didn’t know this would effect the filling process.

With each passing day, as the facts unfold, it becomes more apparent that we’ve been lied to. Here’s an article you might find interesting LINK

System already had dye in it, technician checked all visible areas with UV light and found no dye/signs of leaks. Removed/Recovered 24 Lbs of 134A from the system, charged the system with nitrogen. Visually check for leaks (found non), let system sit for 2 hrs (no sign of PSI loss). Removed nitrogen, vacuumed system down, refilled until lower ball floated half way up sight glass and dryer sight glass was clear (stop showing bubbles) a total of 27 Lbs of Freon. Added another round of dye, will check for leaks over time.
Not quite sure why it took 27 Lbs to float the lower sight glass ball and have the dryer sight glass run clear when system calls for 24 Lbs.
Couldn’t get high idle to turn on when I started coach, does the OTR air system have anything to do with the high idle working or not working?

I’m just posting the solution to my “clown horn” was as simple as putting on a new quick release valve.
