This is where the TV antenna is. I would imagine that is either push, pull or twist.

It's missing a crank & dial, that cranks up the antenna and turns it, it's directional, if I'm remembering right.

With the missing parts, consider possible additional issues.

Have you been on the roof? Is there even an antenna up there?

Would replacing it using a new King antenna be a better antenna ? Anybody know ?

If deciding on going the solar route:
Replacing larger , weathered , old tech antenna with a smaller head new digital model which would leave more roof space for solar panels. The newer tech King might also draw less 12v power from ur coach battery bank. Something to consider , especially if boondocking is your plan.

There is a video of a direct swap , installing a new King.
