I also have a question about the problem at some CGs that have upgraded their cable TV system and now must provide a special type of cable and a converter box that must be connected inside the coach in order for us to access their cable TV network. Do you know what this "new" methodology is and "how" we could make it easier to connect our coaches to these systems? Running their supplied cable thru a window or slide seal does not seem very user-friendly to me, not to mention the hassel of connecting their box to my TV. THANKS!

The connection (F connector) covered by the nut (terminator) is the TV1 output. As with the Sensar Pro, the King unit has a built in splitter and two antenna outputs TV1 and TV2. TV1 is not used in this case and capped off with a terminator to prevent any possibility of signal noise. TV2 comes off the back and goes to the internal coach wiring as described by Mark.
Can't offer much help re campground "cable" as we never use it. We have our own Sat dish with DVR and that's supplemented with the OTA channels should tree cover be an issue.

New dining table in 2017 Anthem 44B
I removed the table and installed a different one in our 2017 Anthem 44B. We wanted a larger table and something that was more ergonomic for the one side (that faces back). Picture attached.

Medicine Cabinet in 2017 Anthem 44B
We wanted more storage in our back full bathroom. Big mirror there but no medicine cabinet. So we had this installed.

44B Fireplace Removal
The 2017 Aspire 44B has a Samsung soundbar and the subwoofer was located in the cabinet under the dining table taking up useful space there. Relocated it behind the fireplace where there is a ton of otherwise unused space.
Lots of room back there:
After prying off the fireplace trim and snipping off the brads, it is now held on with magnets, making access a bit easier until I figure out the best way to make the fireplace unit pull out and/or hinge for easy access to the additional storage space back there:

Great idea, there is certainly a lot of wasted space there and I would love to see a way to make the fireplace a door front for access to that space.

Rob, you have come up with some GREAT ideas. I am going to look at my RBQ and see if the same thing can be done. Boy would that make the DW happy. However I think the fire place is right up against the bathroom wall.

Rob,
Great idea. I may do that mod as well on our 44B. Thanks.

Thats where the factor installed mine in out Voltage which backs up to the 1/2 bath. Still room for it with no problem. You would think a Tow Hauler manufacture at 1/5 the price of a MH wouldn't be that smart.

Chuck, On my RBQ I just pulled out the large drawer under the forward dinette booth and used Velcro to stick it to the wall. Lots of room behind the drawer. I used the same outlet it was plugged into by just drilling a hole in the forward cabinet wall.
I showed this to the head engineer at EC 3 years ago but for some reason they've never changed it.[emoji35][emoji35]

Steve, THANK YOU what a fantastic idea and much easier to move. I never would have thought there was enough room behind that drawer. Thanks to you we have a new wine cabinet and easy to reach during dinner.

X2, Steve, did the same thing on our previous RBQ. Lots of room behind that drawer, it was also where the cats hung out between campgrounds.
Chuck, sorry I never got around to posting that one! On the RBQ there isn't much room behind the fireplace so under the dinette booth is the way to go.
Did a similar mod in the bedroom, put the subwoofer next to the slide mechanism under the bed. Will post pics later...
