Welcome. Any window will be suspect on a trailer, especially one approaching the age of yours since the butyl chauk will drying out near the outer edges of the window frame and creating a path for water to enter. Silicone chauk around outer frame will usually stop this. There are so many paths for water...antenna elevation shaft, antenna coax in, seals, unlevelness, etc...so it is really a job of laying eyes on every inch of the beast. Good luck. John
