Robert, this Fleetwood win looks even more important than I thought.
During some research last night I found the number of units Fleetwood
produced the last 5 years. This from their 2001 10K:

2001 2000 1999 1998 1997
Recreational vehicles--
Motor homes 8,148 16,294 14,923 13,525 14,345
Travel trailers 31,660 40,524 37,208 33,758 31,190
Folding trailers 19,090 21,890 21,171 20,960 18,524
Slide-in truck campers 1,327 1,412 1,420 1,251 1,184
60,225 80,120 74,722 69,494 65,243

Note that 2001 was a down year, particularly in motor homes, but
the industry is now rebounding.

Looking at these numbers, the "several thousand units" for antennas
certainly looks more than my 3,000 - 5,000 estimate.
