Will this antenna work on a flat roof of a mobile home?

There should be no reason it will not work. It is made to be mounted on the flat roof of a motorhome. One thing you may need to consider and validate is the thickness of the mobile home roof. Motorhome roofs are thin and the hardware and handle for the antenna may not be long enough to connect the antenna to the rotating handle inside the house. You will need know your roof's thickness and compare that to the specs for the antenna.

Luis, that is where I have mine. On the roof of my RV. The hole already existed for the previous antenna, but I had to enlarge it just a little. Comes with good instructions, all parts and a drilling template. It runs off 12volts.

Yes it will as long as the roof is at least 3inchs thick from roof to ceiling it comes with a extender if thicker up to 5 inches

Yes it will. However if you are using a park model you might be better served to use a HD antenna that would be used at any residence as you may get better reception. This antenna is made for travel trailers as it is made much smaller and rotates when you change location. It would work on a flat mobile home roof if it is not more than 5" thick. When you install or cut a hole in the roof be sure to use self leveling sealant to seal to prevent any leaks.

I think that as long as this antenna is mounted segurely on the poll and you can get it in the right direction, it may work. I have nmot tried it with this poll.

This antenna has a very strong magnetic mount. You can put it on any flat surface. I've had mine for almost a year and it holds in very high wind...etcGood luck!

To answer your question directly, yes, it will; but you will need an NMO to UHF (SO-239) adapter like this one http://www.protelecomsupply.com/larsen-nmo-uhf-f-mount-adapter?source=googleps&gclid=CJCqq4bq4r0CFc1cfgod0HcA3g. But I wouldn't bother with this magnet mount. It's $30, and you could spend $5 more, plus shipping, and get a MFJ-336S TRI-MAG Mount, with the SO-239 connector, that will hold your antenna on the roof at over 80 MPH. I know because I have this antenna and this mount together and they work great. You can buy the mount at http://www.mfjenterprises.com/Product.php?productid=MFJ-336S . Hope this helps. 73s and have a great day.

May not be what you need. This antenna is only 8" long and is mounted on top of the roof and at the rear of a 2011 Chevy Traverse. It's low enough to get into the garage but at that location, it is probably as high as any hood mounted unit. Reception has improved exponentially.

Absolutely. But if your service is weak at home, since you are in a fixed location, you should put up a directional antenna that points straight at the tower. The sticks are really made for mobile situations.

Depending on the type of roofing material you have on your roof, this should work fine in an attic. I have mine installed in a garage with a finished ceiling and asphalt shingles, and I am able to receive the major networks. I live between 20-35 miles from the transmitting towers. The antenna needs to be facing the correct direction to ensure proper signal reception.

It is a very good antenna but I have this one on the roof. It is to tall for most atics so it may have to lay flat , Do not know if that works or not

the short answere is yes. it does not have a flat antenna input but one that looks like a cable (coax)it is normally called over the air (OTA) Page 15 of the owners manual

We have ours installed to antenna on roof with about 30 foot cable and it works just fine for our cellphones in the house.

You might. It depends on hills, large buildings etc. but this antenna is little better than standard rabbit ears, so it's not going to work miracles.

This an indoor antenna(no magnetic base for the car). Look for the XM antenna with the magnetic base. This antenna will work but it will not stick to the roof of the car.I've used this antenna on the dash of my car, not on the car roof. DTF

It should work perfectly. I bought this to replace a cheaper antenna that stopped working. I highly recommend.

I used this to mount mine to roof. Works fine for me: Antenna's Direct CJMount 20-Inch ClearStream Antenna J-Mount. It is a 1in Diameter Mount.

To get effective gain, it needs to have a ground plane to mount on. That a large sheet of metal. If your in a moble home and it has a metal roof, that would work.If its FM and the stations are in the same direction, I look at some house FM Antenna. For AM see what the amature radio info, it might be a long wire strung and how to put an lighting arrestor.Hope that helps

No. This model antenna is specific to UHF frequencies. For VHF at that distance, I'd recommend this <http://is.gd/OhpTQJ>.

Been my experience with the equipped "rubber Dickie" antenna... Not far...add a roof magnetic type and distance is vastly increased...
