What is this for?
Ok what is this for? WiFi? Pulled the cover off and just coaxial cable to it, but has a two conductor copper wire that is not connected.

I don't think either of those answers are right. It's an odd looking beast, likely related to Internet access...but I'm not 100% sure. Can you trace/find the wires that go from it down into the rig?

Ok the coax wire goes to the cover about the microwave, But right now not connected to anything on the back of the cover. That is my problem that I think some of the coax wires are not connected to the right ports. At our last stop we could not get their cable TV. I think that wire is connected to the antenna in (wrong). I have a coax tracer coming tomorrow so I can start looking at things better.

That is a picture of the tv antenna booster. There is no longer a crank up tv antenna on Verona. Most models just have a digital TV antenna mounted on the roof. On our Verona, the antenna you pictured is on the roof above the tv cabinet. The coax runs from that straight down to the tv antenna booster, which you have pictured, in the tv cabinet. Another coax runs from the booster to the tv. I've not traced mine but I get great digital over the air tv reception. Not aware of other coax in our coach?

Thanks for the info. So I guess when I push the antenna boast switch on the panel it is boosted at the panel not the antenna correct? There is a unconnected power wire in the roof antenna. Would that be for a WiFi booster?
The problem I have is all the coax cable above the micro, I have 11 cables.
1 to each TV (3)
4 from roof satellite, (4)
1 from roof antenna (1)
1 for cable in wet bay (1)
1 cable to bedroom sat area (1)
That leaves one extra???
Not sure what previous owner did, but it was not right, as nothing worked.

It sounds like they removed the distribution box (attached picture). You will need to get one and hook up all the coax as labeled on the box. If your antenna booster lights up when the button on it is pushed then it has power. I wouldn't worry initially about the booster. Get everything else hooked back up and give it a try. Given a digital tv signal is much different than the prior analog signal, I'm not sure they are all that effective. But since there is still one on my RV it must help somewhat with a better signal?
