Thanks for the info RJ,
The window frame situation seems to be under control. I have one lined up. Also I
will investigate my uni-volt system.I don't have a battery yet.What is the best
one I should get? We did run 110 power to the a/s and all lights work. I am
missing a vent fan though and I do not have a manual for my Globetrotter. I would
love to have one!Will the VAC be putting copies online for all yrs/mdls?
