Second Chance Gemini 3400

Every home away from home needs a TV and how can you pass the time when
those extended passages come up ? The TV and video player had to be installed

I purchased a wall mount TV shelf from the local department store and mounted
it with thru bolts into the port berth, just under the air conditioning controls. I
added a small piece of wood ( 3" x 8" ) on the back side for additional support.
I installed a thin rubber edge to the shelf as it can rotate and this keeps it from
hitting the wood and scratching it up. I set the VCR/DVD player on the shelf and
the 13" color TV on the shelf and secured them with the included strap. I routed
all the power cords through a hole into the electrical area and plugged them all
into a surge supressor/power strip that I mounted on the wall and wired directly
to the port outlet breaker which can be operated on shore power, generator power
OR inverter power.

I connected the RCA vidoe and audio output of the VCR/DVD player
to the wall jack that feeds the monitor in the main berth
I later added the satellite receiver which just sits under the shelf unit.
