I was wondering, Has anyone used the existing Coax connections that are installed on newer rvs for cable TV, for their radio antennas?? Cable TV coax is usually 75 ohms as opposed to the Coax we use for our radios which is 50 ohm. This would let you bring the feed in without drilling a hole or possibly compromising a seal some where. The coax is routed through the RV but not connected to the TV antenna system. In my case, I don't hook up to cable at the parks, and what TV I watch is Over the air.

Just a thought.
