Not all of the topics will pertain to what you want to know, but many of them have the answers to your questions. Once there start reading the topics in that section. However many of the the questions don't have simple one line answers.įor the TV and Satellite TV questions I strongly suggest you go the "Satellite TV and Radio on the Road" section in this forum. But having worked in cable TV, I get the basics, and know it can't be that difficult. (and I've heard all the arguments about not missing it, but a sports fan as well, and I don't miss events like World Series, NCAAs, Masters, etc.) When reading about RV TV, I get lost in the electronic tech jargon. I am an admitted TV junkie and will be travelling solo - TV is good company for me and a must for me. Is it a simple process to change to electric when in a place with electric? Is this true - when you move from one place to another, is it as simple as contacting DISH online or by phone with a new location? Address? GPS coordinates? Is this also true - with Dish at home, I just take my home convertor box (what we use to call them) and hook it up to the TV in RV? What's it gonna cost me to get my RV Dish ready? Who does that kind of work? Do DISH installers do RVs too? I can relate to the golf cart battery power source for off grid. You all lost me at the first Modified sine wave invertor? And I worked in cable TV back in it's infancy!! And for devices with surge startups, like house refrigerators, enough power for the startup. The base rating should be at least enough. At the lower end of inverters you will see ratings like 400 watts, 800 watts. I would insure that the power rating of the inverter have a margin over the expected load. Even the Bounder we just bought came with a MSW inverter and no option. With that said, for the couple of hundred bucks for a PSW over a MSW, I would have spent it at the time we got the trailer but it wasn't an option. The power bricks are very immune to the square wave effects of a MSW. Most digital devices today use a power brick to produced lower voltages and usually DC. The cheap power supply on the board did not like the spikes of a square wave. That was not a digital problem but the analog control of the ice door in the refrigerator. In 11 years of running with a MSW inverter for most of the electronics (all the PCs, digital clocks, and satellite equipment) in the RV including the household refrigerator with only one issue.
