Loose radio antenna

Our radio antenna is very loose and I can’t figure out how to tighten it. There is some type of toggle on the coax connector on the inside of the trailer that I have never seen before. I can’t feel a nut to tighten under the foam but maybe I need to cut the foam back. Anyone else have this issue?

Yes, noticed that mine was loose on the last trip to Osoyoos Rally.
Have not looked in to a solution yet.Very surprised when i noticed during a wash and wax.
Something broken somewhere.

It's a feature. To tighten ours I located the bolt inside the trailer and tightened it from there. From then on I've been unscrewing the antenna itself for driving and reinstall it if we want to use it at the campsite.
