I have done some recent mods. Solar Panels. TV antenna. Reinforced shelf & Hold down straps so that the TV can ride on the shelf, and not have to be put away when traveling.

So next I'll be writing Checklist [b]8.0.
I had been using Checklist 7.0 for sometime.
But, I've had to improvise when I came to setting up the new modifications that weren't there when I wrote it.

As time permitted, I checked with my partner to see what made sense to him, and what seemed out-of-sequence and difficult to follow. We have friends who like to come camping with us. They, being to trailering are full of enthusiasm and want to help. The test would be if I could hand a set of instructions to them, and not participate in the setup myself.

I finally am able to release: Checklist 8.0 in PDF format.

Everything that my Fiber Stream is equipped with, has been incorporated into this set of instructions. I have worked myself out of a job. I can be fairly confident that my traveling companion(s) will have camp set up without me being afraid that they'll do something wrong.

Are you an airplane pilot? Looks like a preflight checklist.

In a previous life, I was a Military Instructor.

I taught Navy Electronics Technicians how to maintain a Doppler Radar.

AHA! That explains a lot! Now you just need to get it published under the title "Camping for Dummies."

I too bow down in humility to the master list maker. You rule!

Thanks Frederick. We're trying to get our act together for our first trip in our new 'old' Fiber Stream. We're two weeks behind and we leave day after tomorrow. Oh well. The upside? We'll be meeting you for the first time at Lake San Antonio. I'm looking forward to actually holding those laminated cards. Can't wait to see 'em.
