I'm not sure I understand what you're asking so I'll give a long explanation.  There are two holding tanks on pods for waste; a black water tank (for the toilet) and a grey water tank for the sink and shower.  Each tank has it's own outlet on the street side of the pod, probably fore and aft of the axle.  Take the cap off, one at a time, black tank first, hook up your sewer hose, put the other end in the receptacle for the waste, pull the T-handle out and the sewage will come gushing out.  When everything is out of the black tank, close the valve, take the hose off and put the cap back on.  Move to the grey tank outlet and repeat.  Rinse your hose and any mess you may have made at the dump station.

When you look under the Pod, you should see the dump valve with a large handle protruding to the side. Simply pull out on that handle to initiate the flow out of the holding tank and into the sewer. Push it back in when done.

As for the radio, take a look at the inside wall plate where the TV cable connectors are. You should see a little button on it. If the LED indicator next to it is off, then press the button to turn it on. This activates the signal booster.
