    After Fulltiming, Then What?

    Hi, I still full time. I sold my coach and got a park model travel trailer. Got an acre, and put in a power pole. I face the same problems as the rest of the Framily. Key is to talk to a CPA or something in that ave. If I go somewhere I have to deal with the air port.

    Guys\gals Rear back up camera - need some advice.

    There is a company called Remington (not the gun folks), that make a wireless camera/monitor setup for about 80.00. It is b/w and needs 110 to operate. The camera is small and the monitor is the size of a 7" TV. I set mine on the dog house. Works well and is good to 100'.

    Do I need a Wingard over the air antenna?

    The coach I used to own had more antennas on top than a police car. Sat TV is great till it rains. One of my favorite shows was acquiring signal.  :( Use both. And for goodness sake lower it down before you move your rig.

    Question on my propane tank size and how is propane measured. Gallons or pounds

    Also I have found that taking the bottles or coach to the propane dealer is sometimes much cheaper than filling up from one of the service trucks that come to rv parks and such.
