Flat Screen LCD TV in 22' CCD.

[rseagle]

I recently installed an LCD TV in the rear of my 22' CCD above and in front of the desk. If anyone is interested in doing the same, I'll give you some info.

I had to get a steel structural member fabricated to hold the Peerless SA740P-S Articulating Arm. This gooseneck pedestal was manufactured by Pedestal CEO in Utah. See the attached link.

Talk to Pike Goss at the # provided on the website and refer to my project and he can make the pedestal and split collar for you. This is sized only for the Peerless SA740P-S. Any other mounting arms will require redesign. Cost is approx. $240 + shipping.

You'll need two 3-1/2" #14 (1/4") machine screws, washers and 1/4" nuts to attach the Peerless arm and the collar halves to the pedestal. Use 1/4" x 1" Pan Head screws to fasten the pedestal to the floor and the back of the dinette over-head cabinet. The pedestal has two 4" x 4" welded plates for this.

This is a very sturdy mount and can support 22" to 40" flat screens. I'm using a 32". You can tightly secure your arm with a ratchet strap for transit.

I hope this helps anyone who wants a TV in another location of the 22' CCD, besides the wardrobe bulkhead.

Wow

That is pretty heavy duty - you must watch a heck of a lot of TV when you are camping.

Seriously I have been thinking lots about what I might do in our 22' I.

But I think the 24" i-Mac with the nice set of Bose Speakers and sub under the tables - fills this baby quite nicely. It doubles as the computer - work desk even though I do have the desk as well that doubles as my extended kitchen that holds the microwave and toaster oven.

With the screen turned to face the bed - you can watch TV just nice too - and the sound is much better than the sony speakers already installed. They are next to go - think I will be looking at a new stereo system perhaps.

But as for TV - I think I will get one of those boxes forgot the name - for Under 200 that allows you to link up to your HD system at home - so no TV fees or extra internet fees - I just need the free wifi and I am good to go - but for this trip out I have managed without TV - or if I want to watch a program then I will just go onto the web surf channels to pick up some shows here and there - when I want to watch them.


But that is still a great set up you have.
