Yes. It seems to work. I don’t know if it’s a necessity, though. It wasn’t that much extra cost so I did it.

Best TV Antenna

I’m going to replace the worthless shark fin on my WhiteHawk. What TV antenna do you have that works well? I’d also like to have some AM/FM reception. What do you recommend for a radio antenna?

I don’t know about your specific camper. It’s probably best to look around. On mine, the wires enter the camper at the top of the LED strip. When the diffuser slid down, I could see the wires going...

That would be good advice, too, after the setup is complete. ;-)
