GF 151
0 dB Mobile GlassFix® Antenna for the 160 MHz Band
DESCRIPTION
Half-wave, 0 dB mobile antenna for the 2 m band using the
GlassFix® mounting principle.
Mounting on car window glass – no holes required.
Double-adhesion procedure ensures fast and reliable fixing.
Internal matching unit feeds external antenna through window glass.
Half-wave design – no ground plane required.
High positioning gives performance equal to conventionally mounted
car roof antenna.
FME FastCabling system (cable to be ordered separately).
Simple tuning procedure by means of tuning screw on matching unit.
Easy removable whip for car wash.
Swivel joint for 180° angle adjustment.
If removal of antenna installation is necessary, a quick dismantling
procedure leaves no trace of the installation.
NOTE:
GF antennas are not suitable for car models with windows that have
heat reflective coating.

ASSEMBLY DETAILS

INSTALLATION
1. BEFORE INSTALLATION:
When selecting mounting location take into consideration: positions
of back view mirror, wiper blade paths and defogger wires (when
mounting on rear window). The driver’s view should not be
obstructed.
Max. allowed curvature of the glass surface on the mounting spot is
2 mm deflection per 100 mm length.
Environmental- and car temperature must be above 15° C at
installation, and surfaces to be glued must be dry and clean.
2. INSTALLATION:

3. AFTER INSTALLATION
Allow the silicone gluings to dry off 2 hours at a temperature above
15° C. To ensure full strength of the glue, it is recommended to keep
the whip off the mount for 24 hours.
4. TUNING INSTRUCTIONS
Insert a forward/reflection-type wattmeter between the transmitter
and the antenna.
Key the transmitter and observe the forward and the reflected
power.
Adjust the tuning screw on the matching unit until minimum returned
power is obtained.
REINSTALLATION KIT
A reinstallation kit including all necessary parts for transfer of the
antenna to another vehicle is available under order No. »GF-RK«.
WARNING
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Antennas mounted on the windscreen may cause relatively high field
strengths in the passenger cabin and near the dashboard.
To prevent health hazard due to RF radiation, persons must not be
1.
closer than 30 cm to the antenna whip (transmitter output power to
the matching unit: 20 watts). (DIN 57 848).
The RF signals at the dashboard may cause interference in the car’s
2.
electronic equipment such as broadcast radio, computer automatics,
braking systems, electronic ignition, relays etc. Some cars are more
susceptible to disturbances than others.
It is the responsibility of the installer to carry out a thorough check
of the proper functioning under any conditions of such circuits
before finishing installation.
The enclosed silicone adhesive contains acetic acid and fungicides. Keep
out of reach of children and dispose properly.
