What are these for?

While performing some roof maintenance, I came across these little jewels...

This first one is right in front of the MAXXAIR II cover....

Just a little patch with, what appears to be, a coax cable. For satellite receiver maybe?

The second is on the roof, by the edge and close to the front awning track....


I've got no idea for the second one.

These are on a 2017 Sunseeker 3010DS

Little help, Please?

The first is for a satellite system and the second is the Sirius antenna.

Outstanding! Thanks for the replies..... that's why I love this forum!

I kind of figured the first was for a satellite receiver.... The Sirius antenna didn't even cross my mind, but makes sense.

or......... #1 is the schrader valve where FR pumps in the foam to insulate between the roof and your ceiling. #2, we're not supposed to talk about, but it's a tracking device that the gov-ment can use to find you in case of a zombie apocalypse

For #1 - I've got pictures that show FR does a wonderful job in insulating that area.... some fantastic job in making rectangular ducts for the a/c! Must be magic!
#2 - Guess I'll have to rip that piece out. Heck, I even disconnected the On-Star in a previous car so whomever couldn't track me. Who? Me paranoid?

Thanks for the laughs, Gary.
