Coax Cable dangling

I have a 2017 Hurricane and I noticed after returning from a weekend trip that a coax cable was hanging down under the rear of the coach. On closer examination it looks to have been pinched in two but I have no idea where the opposite pinched end is. The hanging piece is right above the fuel filler neck and a knot of other wiring. When I tried to locate over the air channels the tv in the dining area locates 6 channels but all channels show no signal. The bedroom tv, which is above the break, doesn't locate any channels. Anyway thought I'd give a shout out to see if anyone is familiar with this cable location and what could have pinched it.
Thanks

Ouch!
It seems that your bedroom TV needs a new cable...
Do you have any idea what cut it?
Is it near a slide-out?

No idea but the whole side is a slide. There isn't an entrance or exit hole that the cable piece came from.

Isn't that a 3-trax setup?
Is there a chance that it got caught in the center slide mechanism?

3-trax setup has two tracks at the top and one on the bottom, like this:

This is my slide setup, guess I will have to open up the area under the slide.
