Hey Kickstand,

I am leaning towards the inverter as the culprit. I'll see what my dealer and Thor says. I turned the antenna booster off and the cheap OEM radio could be sucking power when off. I can throw an inline amp meter on and trouble shoot but it is still under warranty and I will see what they say. Sounding like it is a normal issue.
