Mine leaked on my bed twice. After the first leak lubed it, after the second leak I removed it with a different antenna and threw the batwing in the trash. No problems since.
Since the Batwing with Wingman attachment is the best built-in RV OTA TV antenna, I would not recommend that as a solution to the OP's problem.

While the antenna is directional it's not very narrowly directional and doubtful that a limited blind arc has any practical effect once aimed.

Winegard has that blind arc.
The blind arc didn't matter in the analogue days, so there it is. Luck of the draw whether your RV site puts you in the blind arc for the direction you want with digital.
What you want is a truly 360 degree arc AND good digital Omni solves that, but only at short distances from the stations.

If itโs on the 2009, I would go ahead and replace the worm gear and elevating gear- worm gear comes with new quad o rings and wave washers.
Well under $20.
