TV wall mount

I mounted a 19 inch flat screen in our TT bedroom, I cut a piece of good quality plywood a couple inches wider than the mount and wide enough to hit 2 studs and used decent sized screws to set it, I also pre painted the plywood. It was an adjustable mount so we always took the TV down for travel and put it face down at the head of the bed, only took a couple minutes to do. There were cable and power outlets already in place.
