We have a doorbell on our '03 Ultimate Advantage.

I knew there was a wireless receiver under the lowest galley drawer as I had replaced the batteries once or twice when it quit working, and removed the batteries in a couple of RV parks when the door bell was going off at random ...receiving a signal from who knows where!! Today while cleaning up something against the wall under the dining/computing table where we normally store a fireproof file box and a couple of other items, I realized I was looking at another doorbell receiver on the wall. When I pulled off the cover, I found it had no batteries. I put batteries in it, pressed the doorbell, and found the second receiver puts out a different tone than the other one ...more like a typical "back door" doorbell. These two receivers were located on opposite walls directly across from one another, and one had no batteries!! I moved the one under the drawer to under the table (easier to get to in order to replace batteries and likely will be a bit louder there), and put the receiver from under the table under the drawers in the bedside cabinet. This should resolve the problem of not hearing the doorbell when in the bedroom with the ac/heat pump running!!

If you have a doorbell with a wireless receiver, look for a second receiver that may not have any batteries in it!!

Paul, I have a 40K and I don't have a second box. We had the dining room table upgraded when we purchased the coach to the T table so I know there was nothing on the wall before we installed the T table.
