[tabtrailers] Re: TV question - Here's what I got

Hi from So Cal

Jumping in here...While the discussion is up.

The Colby TV which came with my 2008 T@DA does not function properly. I would like to replace...however, I would like to be able to mount it on the existing flex arm...Love flipping it around to face the outside so that we can all watch " The long trailer" around the portable campfile eating popcorn :)...with the dogs of course...Life at its best.

Anyone replace thier colby with a TV/DVD combo that attaches to the existing arm?

Thank you for all your input and wisdom.

Although I couldn't figure how to re-mount it on my Tada's existing wall-mounted swing arm, the Toshiba came with a sturdy foot stand and, blessedly, just one cord.

Beautiful picture, quiet and instant response, light weight, and because I store my trailer in mild desert conditions, I take the Toshiba with me when I leave. Very satisfied with the way this turned out.

Does anyone have one that they have purchased and are happy with? We aren't sure about how good of a reception we would get from just a tv, so that is why the combo is wanted. I have seen the little combo units in some photos w/everything (stereo,cd, etc.), but would like some feedback from some experienced campers. P.S.- Although I am happy w/a good book or magazine,I think hubby would enjoy camping more if he had some tv or a movie to watch...this is a slow work in progress. ;-D Also want to say "THANKS!" for all the helpful info we have gotten from this site..and will continue to get.
