    Bighorn Buyer's Opinions Wanted: Refrigerator Poll (Residential-style or RV-style)

    We are in the process of picking up our new SOB from the factory/dealer. We chose the RV refrigerator over the Residential. We never had a problem with our RV refrigerator in our Bighorn unit. Even though we don't dry camp, I was concerned that my batteries would wear down if we had to park...

I believe it doesn't supply the feet, but supplies an attachment adapter to bolt the arm to the foot of the leveling system. This eliminates having to drill through the foot...

    How Many Have Fired Their Weapon?

    I understand the desire for protection for our family and ourselves, but how many people on this forum have fired their weapon while camping at a campground? I am not talking about at work as a LEO or at a gun range. I' m talking sitting around your CG having a beer and a pickup full of bad...

    Cannot get DVD to work on TV

    Check to see if the DVD is even connected. Your choices are the old red, white and yellow cable, the red, green, blue (and red, white) cable, or HDMI cable. You then have to pick the appropriate cable in the TV Source Menu.

    Big Country product review

    To avoid the accidental connection to the Black Tank Rinse fitting, I used a black marker to paint some of the fitting black. I also wrote the word Black on the rubber cover of the connection.

    HOC name badge modification . . .

    This may not apply with the newer design,but in the old days when I had a magnetic holder for my ID badge, you had to make sure that you kept the magnet away from magnetic strips on credit cards. Just a thought. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
