19rr Stereo/DVD/WB Radio Thingy

OK...I've spent over two hours (not tonight, earlier this season) tryin to tune that dang radio. First I tried without the directions. (Hey - I'm a man - its what we do)
Then I got the handbook...(more beer)
My wife (God love her) grabbed the handbook after much gnashing of teeth on my part, along with cussing, and SHE tried her hand at tuning the damn thing.
Still couldn't get it.
Anyone else having grief trying to tune this thing? It works fine, both inside and out, but I'm here to tell ya - gettin this thing to save a station...make me crazy!!

LOL! I just lived this same scenario last weekend. I did finally manage to figure it out, as you've pointed out the manual that came with it is pretty much useless so it took some playing around.

Once you're on the station you want to save, hit the "clock/store" button in the top left, you should see the word "memory" start to flash on the display in the top right. Once "memory" is flashing just hit the "clock/store" button again. You can't pick the preset number you want to save the station to, it will just go in order from 1-10. If you're slightly OCD like me this is a little frustrating as I like my favorite stations in a certain order but at least they can be saved. I hope this helps!

The radio is on a very short list of things to be upgraded over the winter.

Are you switching the input on the TV itself over? The remote that came with my TV has an input button, hit that and select AUX. If video from the DVD player still doesn't show on the screen then you'll need to check your cables to make sure they're connected correctly.

Your DVD player should have a video out, yellow RCA type connector at a minimum, and there should be a cable going from that to the back of the television. In my 19RR the cable runs through the wall to a port that pops out in the ceiling right above where the TV hangs on the wall.

we had to remove the radio/dvd unit ( 4 screws after the plate is popped off0 and pull it out. appearenlty the people hooking it up where color blind and had the white and yellow plugs reversed. also my radio would play on its own if a weather band alert would come in the area I was camping. Nothing like being awakended by a loud beep and a weather report in the middle of the night. I pull the fuse out to the radio/dvd play and put it back in when needed.

The tornado warning I got over that radio in the middle of the night in Robins ARB Georgia last spring was a life saver. The funnel missed the campground by 1/2 mile while we were hunkered down in the shower building. The base blew the sirens 30 seconds after the alert came over the radio.

This has happens on ours quite regularly. I have mine parked by the house and plugged in while we are getting everything organized and transferred over from our old TT. The wife and I both say that our new trailer has a ghost.

If anyone knows how to disable this weather radio feature, I would love to hear it.
