What is this antenna?

I'm redoing the front overhead but I need some help identifying some antenna so I know what to do with them:

1) this one might be FM it's bent

2) This one looks like a Sirius satelite but it could be a sensor for the temperature/direction display?

1--- yes


2--- yes


3--- most likely yes. There are some small CB antennas, but most likely a cell booster. The coaxial cable will tell you.

The last one is a magnetic cell phone antenna - probably glued on. One problem - it depends on a metal roof for the ground plane. If you are going to keep & use it, glue a 6" - 8" diameter piece of steel to the roof to act as the ground plane & it will work better...

Number 2 is definitely a satellite antenna, either GPS or Radio.

Good point. The coach does have an old CD Disk type Garmin. Didn't think of that. I was hoping it was satelite radio but it's likely the GPS.

Number 3 on our 2006 Diplomat is a Monaco installed CB antenna. Yours may be different but if it is factory installed my money is on CB.

On our 04 Imperial #3 is a combo antenna used for the dash radio and the CB.
