ADCO Cover 23SS

I'm thinking about getting an Adco cover for our 23SS while CW has them on sale, however I was wondering what most owners do regarding the radio antenna? I can't imagine having to screw and unscrew. Is there something else that you can sub for the one that's there?

There's a Phillips screw in the ball at the bottom of the antenna. (Same as the antenna's on an old 1960's car, if you're old enough to remember them - see pic in url below.) Loosen the screw and rotate the antenna down. Takes about 5 seconds.

x2 on folding it over. We have a 2014 23ss and the ADCO cover and that's what I do. Also, don't forget the tennis balls for covering the gutter extensions.

Agree, fold it down, tennis balls on the gutter ends, and also lay some type of padding over the tv antenna, last winter my first year with the cover and outside storage we had heavy snow and it almost pushed thru. Also watch for mice, last winter i noticed some around the camper which was next to the garage, so i put out some poison, in spring found 3 laying under the camper, all clear inside, which is always good! But they chewed a hole in my new cover!

If you've got a manual awning, you'll need a tennis ball for the release lever also. Don't ask how I know.
