I have several antennas on my roof area on my OFF-ROAD POPUP.
The window flaps have an sewed in area I can run coax in that will get from the main body part of the trailer up to the roof area. This all folds down when you lower the roof and the RG cables stays inside the sewed in areas...
My POPUP has two areas with this cable path area - one for the front of the roof and one for the rear of the roof. My POPUP is a 2008 model.
I mounted Antenna Mounts on the side of the roof that penetrates into the inside and comes out behind the wrap around valance curtains that goes completely around the whole inside of the trailer. Then the RF cable goes down the sewed in paths of the window flap material and runs to where i need it to go once it gets the to the bottom hard sides area of the popup..
I would not drill holes in the roof top area but using the roof side area was not a problem for me. Everything inside the trailer is hidden behind the valance current that goes around my whole trailer..
You can see one of my two 2m/440 Antenna mounted on the side of the roof here. I have another same setup on the other rear side of the POPUP roof.. You can also see the AM/FM marine type rubber duckie type antenna for the radio setup in the popup...
This is my floorplan for my OFF-ROAD POPUP showing where all of my RADIO OPERATIONS unit and antennas are installed. The window side curtens have the sewed in cable paths in the window fabric.
This is better photo showing more detail on my 2m/440 antenna mount...
This is how I added a quick mount TV antenna mount for my BATWING antenna for picking up local digital HDTV from the local towns...
I too use the older Wilson sleek 2G/3G setup in my truck which has the longer antenna to create a WIFI HOTSPOT using my VERIZON MIFI unit. This allows up five of our WIFI enabled devices to used around the camp site at the same time. I have a second WILSON SLEEK unit that is mounted up inside the POPUP trailer up behind the valance curtain where I have a 120VAC receptacle. This is the docking station for the VERIZON MIFI unit when being used inside the trailer.
All works out good for me when camping OFF-ROAD in our POPUP...
My MIFI unit allows us to keep tabs on the kids, pay some bills, and do a minimum surfing of the internet. We have the 3GB grandfathered VERIZON Data Plan.
When we go walking or down to a beach area we just take the small MIFI unit with us in the shirt pocket and then all of tablets etc still work just fine on the trails away from the POPUP trailer.
