King Jack Coax cable to antenna head

[DanBelanger]

I found a broken coax cable on my King Jack going to the antenna head, I got the part from king Jack, has anyone replaced this cable? If so what were the steps?
Thank You

exactly what did they send you?

If it's what I think you have, it's just between the amplifier on the ceiling of your RV and up through the mounting hole on your roof to the antenna.

I had a tree decapitate my King Jack and bought a new "head" from them. It was 2-years ago, but the hardest part is getting all the caulking off of the external antenna to expose the screws to remove the external antenna. It's was pretty straight forward after that.

If you mean the cable running through the ceiling and going from the ceiling mounted amplifier/aiming knob to the ANT connection in a front cabinet I have no idea how that would be done.

Thanks for your reply, the cable at the head is broken so sounds like the same cable, when you resealed did you use 311 sealant?

I didn't know to use 311 back then... so I used Dicor. I keep checking it and it's held up fine.

As far as I know 311 is used the same as dicor, Winnebago used 311 on the antenna so went with that!

Oh yes, definitely, NuFlex 311 Silicone is the stuff to use, applied just like Dicor.
