42" flat screen for outdoor view

Can I get a 42" flat screen in between the bay door and the water tank for outdoor viewing? If so, will I need to use a fixed mount or can a swivel mount fit. (2006 Newmar DSDP)

I have a 42" flat screen in the bay with the peg board. I use a 3 joint mount. The TV will swivel in/out, left/right up/down.

If you upgrade from a mediocre Sony flatscreen to a larger HD tv, how would that look with a 40 ish tv...I don't think HD is routed to that or the bedroom tvs

samsung

I just helped to install a 40 in Samsung HD in my side compartment. We replaced the pegboard with a piece of 1/4 or 3/8 plywood...with a solid mount..no swivel or extension. My single direct tv box feeds video to all 3 TV's in HD. Unfortunately ...no surround sound outside..but i can live with that.

I put an LCE Samsung 36 '' and am very happy, for the time spent looking at it
Too much TV is bad for your Heart......go walk, jog, run, etc.

Just playing with your minds
