Angry Water leak front top center of trailer

Hi I have a 1993 34' airstream classic.

I have been chasing this front roof water leak at the top of the center window of my airstream for a number of years now. I have sealed every thing I can think of. I even had a sealtech machine on it at a rv repair shop . Was a waste of $250.00.
Sure would like to get my fellow airstream input!!!
Some times you think you found it, but then it shows up at a later time!!!
SOOOOO frustrating!!!

There is a lesser known o ring under the rotation point of the Wingard antenna. These fail and provide a huge leak point. .06 cents and the leak is gone.

I had the antenna "O" leak starts as a drip and ends up as a serious leak.
I never could find an O ring to totally seal so I ended up buying a new shaft with the O ring around $10.

I also an air vent for the sink leaking there is a gasket kit to repair. The leak was hard to find as the leak was over the door several feet away from the vent.
