Join us then or set your recorder and get ready for many more episodes of the ONLY television program made "By RVers For RVers
The first show that aired last week was from December of 2004. Glad to see that at least one RV show is back on the air.

You can go to the website Welcome to RVTV.ca for more information.

What happened to RVTV on VS. Network. It was there for two weeks and now it's gone! Did they pull the plug again?

I found where RVTV was listed as a show on VERSUS but it does not show up in their programming schedule.

That's what I'm worried about. I have it scheduled to record in my Dish Network DVR and nothing is showing up.

Doesn't look good for RVTV...

From what I understand, Rob's (the Host) father-n-law passed away and Rob's wife was the producer and that has put RVTV on the back burner.

I just checked RVTV.CA seems things have changed again.

RVTV to re-launch on the Versus Network in Jan 2010 Great news for all our loyal viewers! RVTV has just signed a multi-year agreement to broadcast on the VERSUS Network. This will more than triple the number of households we were able to reach on the Outdoor Channel. Over 75 million households will now have access to RVTV via most cable providers as well as Dish Network (Channel 151) and DirecTV (Channel 603). This will make RVTV available to 83% of all households in the United States that have either cable or satellite service.

Join us then or set your recorder and get ready for many more episodes of the ONLY television program made "By RVers For RVers."

I guess we'll need to wait a few more months...

We found a program last week that was very informative. It's "RV Roadtrips" on DIY chanel 111 on Dish. We recorded 2 and have only watched one so far. One of the things that I remember right now was servicing & repairing knive valves like we have for dump valves.

That's good, BUT... A notice just published by DirecTV says they've dropped VERSUS Network from their channel programming. I guess they couldn't come to an agreement. So I guess we who utilize DirecTV are out of luck.

These "spats" happen from time to time. I expect ( more like hope) it will be resolved. They usually are.

Versus is owned by Comcast. It's the old Cable vs Satellite watering contest.
