ANT 029 Assembly & Installation Procedure
1. Select a mounting location for the ANT 029 Remote Antenna. The ANT 029 can
be mounted on an audio rack, wall, corner, or behind a wooden beam. If possible,
avoid placing the antenna within four feet of steel beams. Metal studs, ductwork,
and foil-backed insulation can absorb radio energy, reducing the range of the
system.
2. If installing on wall or other surface, use mounting bracket as a template to mark
position of mounting holes. Use appropriate wall anchors and screws as necessary
(not included).
3. Thread the ANT 021 rubber duckie on to the connector of mounting bracket (see
gure 1). Turn the F-connector on the ANT 021 clockwise by hand until connection
is tight.
4. Thread one end of the WCA 086 3’ coax cable on to the back of the assembled
bracket-antenna unit. Use ngers only to tighten.
5. Use provided #10-32 screws and washers to mount bracket-antenna assembly on
to audio rack; alternatively, use wall anchors and screws (not included) to mount
bracket-antenna assembly on to marked wall/surface area. Make sure bracket-
antenna assembly is secure.
6. Attach other end of WCA 086 3’ coax cable to the F-Connector “Antenna” jack on
the Williams Sound 72-76 MHz transmitter (i.e. PPA T35, T27). Use ngers only to
tighten.
NOTE: Do not bend coax cable sharply at any point. The ANT 021 rubber duckie
antenna should be vertical for best performance, and to comply with
FCC rules.
