Yes, the BOMB is still in my coach. The signal definitely passes through it, but one thing that confuses me is that the power switch seems to have no affect on how the box works. It passes signal whether it's on or off.

To wmiii, if you have the BOMB in your rig, check continuity with the buttons in the various positions as that might be affecting your readings.

I do have the BOMB on mine. The TV connects to the Satellite receiver via the HDMI cable.
It is possible that one of the co-ax cables runs through the 'bomb', then out to the end I see in the fuse compartment in front of the left front tire.
Good information, I'll check it out.
Thanks,
Wm

I have the BOMB and when the light is on.......I think there is a slight improvement in the picture. It might be a booster of sorts.

I did find 3 co-ax ends over the drivers side. One did go to the co-ax end in my fuse compartment. I connected it with my dish Playmaker and it works

I think but not certain the on off switch only needs to be on for the OTA antenna because it has a booster in it for the antenna? My pass thru works without it on too unless I’m using the OTA antenna I believe.

I just visited with Greg in the parts Department at Temecula Valley R/V about a part for my 2005 Sea Breeze. He went above and beyond to help me. He didn't have what I was looking for but headed me in the right direction. Very impressed with the service and willingness to help.

I had a tire come apart and damage the floor of the water compartment, where you insert the drain dump hose. Anyone know of a source for a salvage National RV part like this? I've tried most of the big ones, Visone, Colaw, Gambler's.

Link to deck plate https://www.amazon.com/JR-Products-3.../dp/B004RCSKZE


National RV made many plastic parts in house and may not be available from another source. Fiberglass repair or sheet metal fabrication may be the answer.

So far no luck with salvage parts. I'm trying Ortega Mfg. who still makes some National parts as I understand. See what happens.

For anyone interested, Ortega Mfg. no longer makes any parts for the obsolete National RV's. Stuck out with trying to find a salvage floor for the water compartment. Will have to make one out of aluminum and then use the deck plate on Amazon provided in the post above by Richard S. Thank you for that.

My last chance for a salvage pan for the RV dried up, so there are none available in the US. Just when I was shifting gears to make one out of aluminum or galvanized, I found something called a transmission drain funnel. They use them in automotive shops when servicing auto trans. It's $14.00 and is the exact dimension front to back, and needs 1' trimmed off one side. It's ABS so can even be cut and glued. The center drain will even work okay and accept the screw in cap. So I'll be good to go. Sometimes you just get lucky!
