New LED TV for the Front
A couple of years ago I installed a 20" LCD in the front of our coach. The installation is here. Well, Rusty shows up with a BIGGER 22" TV. Well, I just couldn't allow that to happen.

I just finished installing a 24" LED TV and a DirecTV receiver.

Only had to make a new trim panel for the front of the DVD player and DirecTV receiver.


The switch to the right of the DirecTV receiver controls the antenna amplifier. I got tired of having to reach behind the TV to turn the amplifier on and off.


The Visio 20" was moved to the bedroom and a DVD player was also installed below it.


I also installed an A-B switch so that the rear TV can watch DirecTV.

Looks great. Are you still able to easily control the channels when in the back with the box being up front? Or is it kind of like you set your channel and then go to the back bed? Either way, great update.

I also put my box up front and the remote has no problem and I'm 40 feet away. I bought identical TVs for the front and rear so that I can use one controller to do it all. It does require careful aim though.

Curtis, the DirectTV remote works from the bedroom without any problems.
