TV, RADIO, AND CB ANTENNA
Not including the TV antenna, your motorhome may have as many as two other antennas.
The AM/FM radio antenna is a solid whip type with a flexible coil base. The coil base certainly helps
extend the life of the antenna but hitting low branches and other objects at high speed can lead to severe
damage.
The CB antenna lead-in wire is located up under the dash left of the steering column. It will be coiled along
with ground and 12-volt positive wires for CB radio hook-up.
SATELLITE ANTENNA PREP
In order to facilitate the installation of either roof mount or portable satellite dish antennas Airstream has
pre-wired your motorhome. On the drawing on the following page please note the two coaxial cables drawn
with heavy double lines. One is labeled PREP WIRE, CEILING and the other is PREP WIRE,
PORTABLE.
PREP WIRE, CEILING is used for roof mounted antenna. The end of the cable for the antenna is located in
the roof, centered side to side and about four inches behind the front roof cross member. Under the outer
roof sheet, in this same area, is a stiffener plate about a foot square to help support the antenna and it's
attachments.
The other end of the cable is located in the roof locker next to the television and is labeled.
PREP WIRE, PORTABLE is used for the satellite dish antenna that is portable and set next to your vehicle
when you pack. The end of the cable for the antenna connection is under the front hood on the curbside.
You'll need to bend down and look up to see the coiled coax cable.
The other end of the cable is located in the roof locker next to the television and is labeled.
