Correct, I had a post a few weeks back. Wasn't a matter of not wanting too, I can't. The Winnebago motor home has solid styrofoam in the roof. There is no air space.

They said Winn runs a continuous line from the antenna head, down the crank up lift arm, into the roof, down the 20 ft length of roof to the electrical closet. So there is no connection under the antenna mount. The closest connection is in the electrical closet. Thanks though....
Some we can some we can't. You try a splice by chance.
