Installation
Important: Handle the Dish Reflector with care.
Deformations in its shape may reduce the RocketDish's
effectiveness.
1. Line up the alignment tabs of the Mounting Bracket with
the alignment slots of the Dish Reflector. Insert the tabs and
rotate the Mounting Bracket until they lock intoplace.
Note: Ensure that the antenna feed slot of the
Mounting Bracket lines up with the antenna feed slot
of the Dish Reflector, as shown below:

2. The Dish Reflector and Antenna Feed are keyed so the
Antenna Feed can only be installed in a single orientation.
Follow these steps:
a. Remove the knob from the Antenna Feed.
b. Line up the alignment pins of the Antenna Feed with
the alignment holes of the Dish Reflector and Mounting
Bracket.
Note: Ensure that the straight edge of the
Antenna Feed end (shown below) and arrow on
the Antenna Feed cap are pointing straight up.
c. Insert the Antenna Feed.
