NOTE:
The following describes the use of the
DXE-SSVC-1P
and
DXE-SSVC-1PG
V-Clamps
that are included with the
DXE-ARAV3
. These are used for mounting the
DXE-ARAV3
on a typical ground rod from 1/2" OD to 3/4" OD.
If you plan to mount the
DXE-ARAV3
to a larger mounting mast, you will need two
optional
DXE-SSVC-150P
and one optional
DXE-SSVC-150PG
V-Clamps which will
accommodate a mounting pipe that is 1" OD to 1-1/2" OD. Refer to
Figure 8
for
examples.
Refer to
Figure 4
and install one of the two wires (both are the same length) from the brass block to
the
AVA-2
antenna
ANT +
connection, use the wing nut and hand tighten only. The wire is held in
place on the brass element block with one 5/16" x 1/2" bolt and one star washer. The closed lug
goes on the brass element and the open lug goes on the
AVA-2
.
Figure 4
The other wire goes from the
ANT -
(use the wing nut and hand tighten only) on the
AVA-2
to the
ground tab on the stainless steel V-Clamp installed on your ground rod as explained in the next
section. The open closed goes on the ground tab and the open lug goes on the
AVA-2
as shown in
Figures 5
and
6
.
