Hi everyone,we just got a 2010 Flagstaff 8528 fifth wheel.It has an entertainment slide and I can,t figure out what the little black box is beside the t.v.....looks like a cell phone or ipad goes in there...anyone have any ideas!Thanks.

Could be for the sirius/xm radio.

It is in fact for Sirius/xm radio. You may want to look around in the rv for the box that goes in there. To install, push in lightly on the top and it will rotate out slightly at the top just like a cassette player. The box than slides down into the holder and push slightly to lock in place. I did take pictures of the one in my 2011 Flagstaff 8528CKSS which I believe is the same as yours. I read this from my phone but can not find the topic on my home computer. If I find it, I will post pictures of it installed and uninstalled.

That makes sense now,that would explain the unusual antenna on the roof of the slide,thank you all!

$37 plus free shipping at Amazon. If yours is the same as mine Sirius XM model #XDN1V1B. Amazon shows it discontinued by manufacturer but still have them in stock. OR, you could check with the previous owner. He may have it tucked away somewhere and forgot about it.

I just looked on Amazon and the one there is XDNX1V1? The one in my unit is set up different,it is tall and goes in bottom to top.
