Mast Assembly
NOTE:
For those that have their own non-metallic 15 foot mast, you can purchase the NVIS
antenna kits with all the parts except the mast assembly. Part numbers for those antenna kits are:
DXE-NVIS-8040NM
and
DXE-NVIS-8040SNM.
The NVIS Mast Assembly is the same for
both the
DXE-NVIS-8040
and
DXE-
NVIS-8040S
NVIS antennas.
The mast is made with four fiberglass
tubes, three telescoping mast clamps, six
element clamps and one vinyl cap.
1. On three of the fiberglass tubes (1.25” OD, 1.5” OD and 1.75” OD) make a mark on the tubes
4.25” from one end as shown.
2. Install the telescoping clamps on the element tubes using the supplied element clamps with the
overlap as shown. Install the vinyl cap on the top tube.
