What is it: Antenna and?

This was behind a PO installed blank plate next to fridge, I assume the yellow wires are for the antenna and the brown and white wire are 12 volts? Please correct me if I am wrong, I don't have 12 volts hooked up at this time to check.
If the yellow wires are for antenna how do I go about putting a plug back in.

As always your help is much appreciated.

You got it. The white (neg) and brown (pos) wires are 12v feeds to the old (long removed) booster for the antenna. The yellow/black wires are from the antenna and to the radio (most likely). I'd need to see a little better picture to confirm that one feed goes over to the radio.

What amplifier?

Jim thanks for the information.

Does this picture tell you the needed information.

Where would I find the correct booster amplifier for this, the manual (Braund Super Skyliner) list the amplifier an P/N 14939 but of coarse I can't find one that old.

Winegard talks about an amplifier P/N RA-7596 but does not list it on there website, Barker Manufacturing has one listed at: TV Signal Amplifier
Would either of these work?

Anyone have an original they would like to sell?

I am utilizing one of these amplified outlets for the antenna in my Minuet -- purchased it through Ace Fogdall RV in Cedar Falls, IA
