Adding second TV
Is there anyway to add a second TV without running a cable?  I would like to take the incoming signal directly from the TV cable and send it wirelessly to another TV (not connected to an HDMI port so that you only see what the other TV is watching)?

The antenna connection plate in the rig has a second port for another TV, accessible from the back of the plate, if you pull it out. Usually, LD wires this to a second TV location, where you would find a connection plate without a switch. If it is open, you could run a cable from there to wherever you want the other TV.

Anyone know if the 2005 RK model has the ability to put a second TV in the kitchen?

Assuming the 05 is similar to the 04 I suppose you could pull the microwave and put it there; should be electronics in there. Perhaps do away with the cupboard next to the microwave. However, having owned this girl for 13 years I can say that the TV in front can be swiveled and seen quite nicely from the back. If you want to sit at the table and eat and watch something you could both sit on the back bench.

I don't see where a box that is about 20 feet long post-cab area to back wall needs a second TV. Lazy Daze started with a 15" Sharp TV that has been replaced a couple times with a 22" Supersonic fitting nicely in the space now. Plenty big to see, pretty good picture, horrible audio, we plug in our Bose Color for sound.

Edit since we're camping now I took a quick 👀 , the wall behind the back facing bench is open but that butts up against the fridge and I'm pretty sure that wall is 1/8th inch so no support for a TV. Maybe something in that corner that has multiple attach points primarily anchored to the cabinet above?

Thanks.  May have to be more creative then.  Perhaps rather than looking for a permanent mounted TV solution. , I just look to where I can put the second coaxial cable outlet and where I would plug in to an electrical outlet a small TV in when we are not moving.  When I had a Trailmanor, I bought a "hook" that had a  universal TV mounting plate put on it.  If I were to put that over the door that can close off the back area, would the TV be seen there if a small person was using the dinette to sleep on facing that door?  The reason one TV is not a solution is I need two to avoid the groans over which programs to watch.  That should only occur at the destination.  I am attaching pics to make it easier to see what I am considering.
