leaks!

I just got my 70 overlander back and there seems to be some leaks.
The first one is coming from the antenna crank, we removed the antenna so we don't need the crank, anyone know how to seal this? We also have water dripping from the aircon unit, I turned it on yesterday to test it, but only for a few minutes, I wouldn't think it would be condensation, we are havibg heavy rains today so good day to test for leaks.
Any suggestions??

Thanks!!

Remove all the TV antenna, plate the roof and seal it with Vulkem.

Put a small picture over the inside hole.

Your AC may have a plugged drain line.

In addition to the above...

Remove the A/C filters on the inside of the trailer. Check to make sure the hold-down bolts are snug. There should be 3 or 4 bolts.
