New Rushmore Franklin

Very new to this "Camping thing" Just bought the franklin2014. have stayed in it for one night so far very quiet didn't hear the rain that woke up other campers in our park. We have had it delivered to the Mabel lake golf course where we will be staying in it over the next 5 months will keep you informed of any problems we have.
Does anyone know if the connections for the tv in the bedroom are for satellite?

Typically they are not, unless you use the "Satellite from campsite" feed in the storage compartment. The TV in the bedroom is usually only Antenna.

You can add a simple coax A/B switch box though and get the feed from Antenna or S'llite to all TV's.

after more nights

Thanks for thew welcomes, we did check with the factory and apparently they are pre wired for satellite.
We have stayed in the unit now 4 nights in total here are some of the issues;
1. tv stopped working in livingroom after 3 nights
2. Large awning is blowing fuses
3. switch in the bedroom makes the hall light "Blink" when swiched on but seems to do nothing else.
4. carpet in bedroom has a tear in it, worried it might start to fray.

Otherwise everything is great will keep you informed of the repairs from the dealer.

A very beautiful floorplan! The satellite tech that came to set our dish up at this location was able to get the bedroom tv to work. We have a second receiver for the bedroom. He had to use a splitter behind the livingroom (where your bedroom is)entertainment center. He also had to use the cable connection in the docking center instead of the satellite connection. Crazy, but it worked! Welcome to the Forum and enjoy your Franklin!
