TV installation MF895

[jgmallo]

Hello all,





I have recently received my MF895 and I am interested in make some DIY and install a TV.
I have been reading in some old posts that part of you have installed a TV in the galley area and master stateroom.



Could you please be so kind to share some pics of where you have the TV mounted, size of TV, brackets used and electrical and antenna (if any) cabling?


Thanks in advance!

As part of the initial configuration I had Sundance install an antenna with a powered splitter and one cable going to the standard radio and the other to a future location for a TV. I also had 12v power run from an auxiliary fuse panel for the tv. The location the cables run to is into the starboard windshield wiper area which is accessible via a small panel in the main berth Ceiling. We planned to mount the TV on that large wall in the starboard side at the foot of the bed. The cables are coiled up waiting. So far we decided we like not having a TV :,)

Hello Lynn,


Thanks for the quick answer!
I guess your setup is like this I saw in a video of 895 test:

I will check how to route the cables during weekend at this location as I really like to spend some minutes just laid on bed watching TV before fall sleep... although my wife doesn't like the idea very much:).

If anyone else have some addtional pics or info, you are welcome to share.

Thanks in advance.
