Hi Eric,

One of these  $17 wall mounts will work.  I have several.  The brackets 
bolt to the back of the TV and then you hang them on the wall mount, so 
they are basically infinitely adjustable to the limits of the width of the 
base (this one is 48 inches, so it covers 44" easily.  If you want you can 
look at mine, I'm just across the river.  

Best,
Ian

Here is the problem I'm up against.  Everyone of the mounts talks about 
the VESA Pattern.  Most only go up to 1000mm (this is a 39.3" distance 
between uprights on the back of the TV) 
Mine is 44" in (or 1117.6mm)  but I can't find any VESA patterns that will 
work. 

Most of the stands can handle the weight and are rated for bigger TVs (up 
to 85")  But I still can't find one that will mount to a TV with 44" 
'studs'.
