Radio antenna

I have a 2015 Thor ACE 30' class A. It doesn't appear to have an external radio antenna. Am I missing something?

It is about 6 inches long and on the roof above the driver's head. they are often broken off if you drive under low objects. They are easily replaced (Amazon).

Radio antenna

I have a knockout plug on the roof above the driver seat. I bet I never had one.

Ours had an antennae above the driver, but it was connected to nothing. The axxera in the dash was not connected to any antennae. Also the Jenson in the living area had no antennae. Dealer connected the rooftop antennae to the Axxera and mounted a second antennae for the Jenson. Thor seems to be a bit lax with the antennas and their connections.

Our Jensen has a 39 inch antenna running up the bed surround. I found it when I had to remove the bed surround looking for a Hall ground fault.

Just the screw on part? Or the base as well?

It snapped off above the base, so I'd say just the screw on part. The caulk around the base is intact (thank God). I'm hoping the threads are universal,?
