I will say again I doubt there is 0.9 volt loss in the coax.. HOWEVER... And this is a big HOWEVER.
2x a year I mop the roof on this rig.. Well one time after mopping all TV was lost.> So I dug into it (Literally) near the antenna was a half clamshell where the coax enters the roof and then on into the RV I opened it up and inside was a dobule female connector joining the ends of Two lengths of coax. one from the antenna to the roof. one from the roof to the Sensar Pro.
Rusted and the wires pulled out
This kind of thing can cause enough resistance that even teh meter load will show a lower voltage.
I trimed the wries back a bit, put new ends on. new connector GREAT TV. Re-sealed with a better sealant.
