ANTENNA ASSEMBLY
1. First, assemble the Upper Element and the Lower
Element with the hose band. Then attach the ele-
ment assembly to the Base Coil as shown.
2. Attach the (3) ground plane radials to the Base Coil
as shown. Lock them in place with lock nuts.
3. Assemble and attach the (2) mounting brackets to
the Support Pipe as shown. Run your coax up
through the Support Pipe and attach to the connec-
tor at the base of the coil (Standard PL-259 connec-
tor).
4. Adjust (Tune) the top element length (tip of the Up-
per Element to the top of the Lower Element) to
your operating frequency, according the Frequency
Tuning Chart.
5. Finally, mount the assembled antenna on your mast
using the two U-Bolt assemblies provided with the
Mount Brackets
