First post and a Television question

Hello All
We have and I still do tent camp, when we got our dog that is when we as a family moved up to a used Coleman pop up and then a brand new Jayco pop up. Which I loved but the wife and dog hated it during storms or hard rain something with acoustics and the way the roof is made. So enough of our camping history currently we have a 2011 Wildwood 18BHXL bunkhouse that we acquired used last year and so far it has been great only been out twice and have more planned for this year.

If any of you have the same model or one similar I have a television question, yea I know the whole reason we go camping is to get away from everything including TV but it has the antennae with power boost so why not. I can always use the excuse what if the weather is changing and we need to know what to expect for traveling!
This model has a cabinet that you could put a TV in but the opening is 15"X15" so it would be a very SMALL TV. I am thinking the wall that separates the dining table from the bunk beds would be a good spot for the 24" flat panel LED TV we bought just for the camper. There is limited structure so mount placement looks critical and we would want it as flush as possible so it wouldn't be in the way during meals or just sitting at the table but not viewing the TV. I played with the cabinet where the antennae connection is but nothing looked right and would be blocking the cabinet and it's really high next to the ceiling. The wall looks best but thought before I buy the mount and make holes in the wall I would ask here on the forum to see if others have experienced this or have a possible solution.
Thanks in advance and happy trails where ever they may go.

Welcome from Western New York! Your tent to PUP to bigger camper sounds pretty typical for the forums. There is a search feature in the upper right portion of your screen that might help you find what you are looking for where the tv mount is concerned.

Welcome to the forum. Enjoy your new Rig. Most campers marginal areas to use a fixed mount do to structure design. Check your dealer also for help. Later RJD
