Well just to let you know, not much information in the manual, it's all generic information. Google in "berkshire rv manual" and there is a PDF version that is 55 pages. Or FR customer service and they will send you one. Any thing of interest you are looking for?

As No3Putt says, the manual is so generic it's worthless. The one that came with my 2011 had not been updated in years and was not even specific to the Berkshire; in fact, just barely specific to Forest River

Do get your Chassis, Engine and Transmission manual from the internet if you don't already have them. Available as PDF's and full of excellent info.

Also, manuals for individual components (fridge, AC, water heater, etc) should all be available separately from the 'net.

Boowho??

No, there is a splitter in the connection that will not let the signal through to a receiver. Most can only use that for cable in, but you also need to turn off the antenna bust switch to get cable. There is a way to put an AB switch in before the splitter connection and then you would be able to do what you want. I posted how to do that a couple of years ago. I will find the post and list it again. Others here may have other options. Craig
