    2023 2670MK Directv Receiver mounting for motorized TV mount

    Hello, We just purchased a 2670MK which has the motorized tv mount. I am wondering if anyone has mounted a Directv receiver in the cabinet space that the tv and motorized mount occupy? Looking for some ideas to be able to mount it securely. Any help is appreciated.

    Thank you,

    Jonny

    Hey Jonny, it looks like this is your first post, welcome aboard. Could you post some pictures of where you'd like to put the receiver? That might help others visualize what you're trying to do.

    I think you are considering putting it on the telelevator along with the TV. I haven't heard of anyone doing that. I suppose there is some way to fasten it so it moves up and down with the TV and keep the cables clear at the same time.

    A lot of us have a cabinet above the TV and use it for our sat receivers. Anyway, you could put it in one of the lower side cabinets? Not sure there are many other options other than setting it on the counter top when being used and storing it during travel but that sounds like not such a good option.

    Now for my way out there "out of the box" thinking..... Maybe mount it to the top counter piece that open as the TV rises such that the receiver also pitches up and back on the top piece? It would be out of sight when the TV is up but laying flat on the counter when the TV is stored. It might require a hole in the back part of the counter for cable access. Just throwing it out there as a possibility.

    Thanks all for your replys. I ended up using a Hideit to secure the Directv box in the televator pace and then mounted my Bose soundbar to the televator below the tv. so far, so good!
