Antenna for Furrion camera

[Dawgfever]

My Furrion backup/observation camera quit working suddenly. Discovered that the antenna on the camera was missing. Priced them from e-trailer and the antenna is $115 ! Now I am wondering if it was stolen.
It appears to be just a screw on antenna. Where is Radio Shack when you need them? Any ideas from the forum on a replacement?

Any wifi antenna should work. I replaced mine from Ebay but saw the same on Amazon.

I tried that but the ones I got the base was to big. The camera has a smaller antenna base than normal. So could you post what actually worked for you? (base size) I wanted a taller antenna to get a stronger signal in the cab.

Thanks

Did you ever get your camera to work and what antenna did you use?

This is the one I bought https://www.amazon.com/Universal-Dir...8933814&sr=8-1

I installed the base on the roof (glued down) and ran the extension cable to the camera. I have not traveled with it yet, but I got 2 extra bars on the receiver from what I had in the drive when testing it.

Okay Cahriad and Dawgfever, after reading your posts I'm going to order the same system unit to fix my broken antenna. I'm very hopeful this is the trick since etrailer gouges for the original unit.
