DXE-TB-4P with Other Verticals:
After attaching your vertical antenna to a short antenna mounting mast, use the supplied
DXE-
CAVS-1P
V-Bolt saddle clamps provided in the
DXE-TB-4P
kit (instead of the hex head bolts) to
mount the antenna/mounting mast assembly to the mounting plate as shown in
Figure 8
. Attach the
TB-4P mounting plate to the top of the Tilt-Base using the flange and Nyloc nuts. At the bottom,
use the two large washers and Nyloc nuts. See
Figure 8
for the proper sequence of hardware. The
upper Nyloc nuts are used to secure the tightened flange nuts from becoming loose if the wind
vibrates your antenna assembly.
