When we travel we use a satellite to get the internet. Not one of the fancy and expensive roof top mounts but one on a tripod. getting the wires into the coach with out putting holes in the side of our Friendship proved to be a challenge. The desk is in the bed room on a slide out. We drilled two holes through the floor under the desk. Found that the floor had styro foam insulation in it so we took some "funny hose" from HD and coated it with silicone glue and put in tn the holes. After the glue set trimmed it inside and out. We run the lines through the holes when we are parked and when we are traveling they are inside. No air leaks and no holes in the side of the coach. We also built a "desk" for a lap top in the cab. Discovered that with a little trimming a 3" PVC pipe fit in the coffee cup holders. mounted a piece of quarter inch plywood large enough to hold the laptop on the PVC with angle brackets and built hold downs cushioned with silicone glue. to hold it from bouncing off. Waxed the PVC where it fits in the coffee cup holder and it rotates smoothly from driver to passenger. Now we have a navigation system to see where we are. As Glub says like you need a navigation system to get to Yuma you have been over that road twenty times. "They" just don't understand.
