It depends on which transmitter you tune into. If you tune into one of the main transmitters you will get all the channels available from that transmitter. However if you tune into one of the smaller relay station transmitters not all channels are available. However I would have thought...

We had a similar problem last week happily it's now sorted First noticed battery voltage was not increasing when charger switched on.Voltage at battery connectors 0 volts without battery connected - no dc equipment operating in van. Got an exchange unit from caravan dealer - still the same -...

Noticed two lights are out on the high level brake light strip. Caravan handbook specifies the bulbs as T5/13.5 12V 2.3W I've done various searches but cannot find replacements with this information. I suspect the handbook information is incorrect - anyone had to replace these bulbs and...

Have you tried the Staffordshire mobile cushion repair people,they repaired our cushion at our home,they even brought a cushion jack but didn't need it. After repair was completed they gave the cushion a new M.O.T. so comfy cusion for the next two years! (it's an MOT every two years for cushions)

There are various techniques used in undustry to prevent nuts/bolts slackening and I can't see any reason not use one of them in this application. Seems to me to be a money generating scheme or even worse a badly thought out idea. Not familiar with the Bailey alu tec caravans but it doesn't...

Not surpirised this ferry passenger service is stopping due to low demand - the fares are extortionate. Return crossing Rosyth to Zeebruge during September for car/caravan and a 2 berth cabin - over £1000.00 I stay about 40 miles from Rosyth,the cost of the fares have always stopped us using...

Try wallpaper, to be had at any DIY store,many patterns and styles to pick from,personally I prefer a florid flock design,chinese restaurant style. Beware of counterfeits!

We always took along a directional aerial to use instead of the roof mounted omnistat aerial (it's pretty duff except in strong signal locations - which caravan sites tend not to be in) you will probably find the mast more expensive than the aerial. We used a cheap

If you only use your toillet for "number ones" why bother using Elsan or any other toilet additive in the collection tank. We only put the scented stuff in the top tank and thats all.
