Jon! Do you just dictate to Di what to type? Man that's a lot of typing!
Great article by the way!
I didn't realize how much there was until I sent it to Skiffer.
I'm the typist and Eric Faires was good enough to be my editor. He reviewed it, corrected my errors, suggested how to improve it so it could be more easily understood, and the acid test will be at Spearfish. That is the outline of the seminar.
No credit for any of this on my end, I am merely providing a different version of the electrical systems for Jon to make his pitch.
I'am considering putting a CB radio in my coach the queston I have is this- What do I need to know ahead of time before I go to a CB shop? I look at the wires in the carpartment on driver's side and think oh boy I can just see a guy trying to tie into what he thinks will work. Any advice on this? I really don't much care for CB's but will come in handy when I start traveling with other members & for some info when stuck in L.A. traffic. Thanks
Sid,
On my bus the converter pulled a good source of 12v over the steer bay. I can tie into this anytime for anything. You should look over things in this area.
The area you are talking about is all 24v on mine.
Depending on where the closest 12V power source is relative to where the CB is going to be hanging you can pull a wire from either a chassis or house electric supply.
Where ever it comes from I would urge that it be fused at the connection point as well as using the fuse holder supplied with the CB. One potential source I would consider would be pulling the power from the seat. I presume the seat electric controls are 12V, and unless you intend to run the seat through its paces while keying the mike I see no problem. That's the lazy man's answer.
