Hey Ken,
Couple of things that could be of concern. Is the body of the TT mounted to the frame on rubber bushings? If so, you will need to ground the body in several places with braid. My guess is that the frame is actually electrical ground. Several years ago, I tried to make a mount that would attach to the crank up tv antenna. All I succeeded in doing was rip the mount out the first time a strong wind came up. That was one of my better ideas. I have a friend that has an older Airstream (back when they made them out of thick metal) and he has stuff mounted all over the top of it. Some of it actually works.
Good luck
Doc
