Argosy TV antenna

For quite a while I've been looking at all the Argosy motorhome pictures I can find and so far have not ran across any that seem to have the same TV antenna on the roof as my 1974 20' Argosy MH.

Anyone recognize this antenna?

Check out the Jack Antenna... looks like an early version ? We have the Jack antenna and think it is great.

I don't know the brand but those were used on the stretch limos of the 70's and 80's. I doubt that it is Argosy original equipment.

Looking at the Jack Antenna the other day is what got me to thinking about the antenna on my Argosy. I'm seriously thinking about the Jack.

I think you nailed it! I knew I'd seen those antennas used somewhere, just wouldn't come to mind. It certainly does look like the ones seen on those limos.

I'm going to have to look closer to see if this one looks like an after thought or if it looks like an original install.

Thanks!
