I have this antenna on the roof next to my crank-up TV antenna. Is this antenna for radio, and if so, how do I connect my Sony RV AM/FM/DVD stereo to it? The stereo unit has a single wire antenna currently connected to it and it doesnt receive hardly any stations.

Thanks-Dan

I have a antenna like that on my class C it is for the outside radio. You Sony stereo is hooked the same as mine and gets the same results. For music & news I use a smart phone and apps Radio Garden & pandora both are free.

It looks like a ham radio antenna for 2 meters. If you can snap a picture of the base it would really help.

The plug is the same as a car stereo. The antenna is basically a car stereo antenna except made to mount to the trailer roof.

Should have a coax type cable with a male plug on the end to go into your stereo.

I would expect that ant. to be connected to your stereo. Are you sure it isn't?
