I rewired the controls for raising the antenna, but could not get the warning light inside the coach to work. This winter if I can get Ralph up on the roof~

Thanks, Pete.
Not a bad idea raising the rails maybe an inch. Will see.
The rails need to come off anyways because of rust spots and will get
them power coated like the ladder I had done.
