2022 Forza roof wire chase

Hi everyone. We sold our Vista a couple years ago, tried a fifth wheel and are now going to a new 2022 Forza 36H. I’m super excited!

I called Winnebago to check if there was a wire chase that goes up to the roof for either solar or satellite. The person sent me a diagram and she thought that it may be above the windshield. After looking at the details, it looks like there may be a cable there for a dish antenna. Can anyone confirm that? The coach does not have any satellite upgrades listed in the msrp sheet.

How about a solar connector? Our fifth wheel spoiled me because it had a chase to the basement and a pre installed solar connector.

There will be "some" info on coax and sat. prep on this drawing:

If you have the sheet of options, you may be able to relate it to the options shown there?
Sheet 3 bottom right corner has the explanation of various options and then at top left there are various info sections to give some info on those ?

Hard to relate it to things without being able to see it in person,but it may make more sense whose looking at them?

These are the starter for all wiring to sort dwown to early or late build of the year and model

Then generally to find the location, the "installation" sections are more help on where to find things. TV is not one of the better things to locate??

Thank you!

This gives some more information to work with. I did find a video where someone installed solar and they came down through the roof just above the bathroom. Another video was about roof maintenance and the person mentioned where solar wires would go. I’ll explore the roof more next week when I’m headed home with it.
