SATELLITE, 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 anten-
nas 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.
