Missing TV antenna cable

A friend of mine removed my old Winegard TV antenna off of my Adventurer. Problem is that he didn't remember what happened to the inside cable that connected the antenna to the entertainment center. I found the cable going from the entertainment center to the main TV but can not find how a cable from the antenna gets to the entertainment center. Any suggestions?

Takes different routes on different Rv and you don't give us any idea what RV you have and they made lots of adventurer over the years. Year, make, model, and sometimes they even change in the middle of the year.

Missing TV antenna cable

More info . . . 1998 Winnebago Adventurer 35WP. Yes, there was a cable from batwing to the the antenna bracket but that has been all thrown away. I took the tarp off to put a new King antenna on the rv and there is only one hole and I can not see anywhere the cable could have been located. Thanks!

Okay, with the info on which models, I see there are eight different setups , depending on what options your Rv had. things like how many TV, outside or not and such all change the drawing, but this is the drawing showing what to expect on the one with your options.

All of them have one item in common. There is a blue tape on the coax from the last splitter to the antanna, so if you find the last splitter, looking for the blue tape maker on the coax will ID that you have found that end of the correct coax!
This link takes you to a different drawing with lots of options when TV is left or right, etc. but may give you some more info if you sort out which to use for your setup:

Can't be of much more help without actually looking at what is there, to compare with what the drawings show. However, I might think the end of the coax was just pushed back into the hole and might require fishing it out to reuse it. Just guessing what they might have done but sounds what I would have done with the end.
