I don't think I have ever seen a fiberglass 5th wheel or travel trailer with a out side radio antenna.
You need a steel ground plane for those kind of antennas to work, Like a car, truck, bus Etc...
I guess you might be able to run a copper wire around your unit and grounding it to the grounding side
of the antenna, it might work, not sure. But AM radio is pretty hard to get any kind of quality out of
a fiberglass RV. But I've haven't had much luck in any of my past fiberglass 5th Wheels.
