Anyone know why I have two connectors?
I've been using the thicker cable that seems to have two seperate cables going into it hoping that it's the cable for the two antenna mounted to my sleeper.

The thicker cable is generally used for a co-phased antenna system, which has two antennas mounted on both mirror mounts. The smaller coax is probably for the dipole antennas mounted on the back of the cab, which someone installed. -

My truck doesn't have mirror mounted antennas, the ones on the rear are Kenworth brand too.
I don't know if it matters but it's a 2026 with the small camera mirrors.
I might have some digging to do. -
Okay, if you have or know someone with an antenna analyzer, it would give you a good idea. Do you hear anything with either coax hooked up? If you do, then unscrew the antenna from the mount on the cab. If the signals disappear, then you know which cable goes to that antenna. Unfortunately I'm not familiar with the t680 antenna system. -
Little late on my reply but I finally got a chance to plug into to smaller single wire and while it gets a signal it is horrible and requires turning the filter knob almost completely to clean it up.
Reminds me of the stock window antenna in my old 23 Cascadia, horrible.
The twin connector is great though with almost zero noise so I'll continue to use that one.
Just wanted to update incase others have a similar setup on their truck.Night Stalker10 Thanks this.
