[RFI] RFI on Shore Line of an RV

Considering the RV manufacturers generally use the cheapest electrical 
and electronic crap they can buy, I can't imagine how noisy they will 
be... We are awaiting delivery of our toy hauler from mfg.
I'm not TOO worried, as I plan to rip out most of the devices that come 
stock and replace them with nice, quality, quiet stuff when I install 
this huge solar panel/LiFePO/genset/ converter/inverter pile-o-parts.
I've engineered it to cover us no matter what.  And enough batteries to 
run pretty much everything while boondocking (aka dry camping with no 
hookups).

73,
