The antenna cable is available in lengths of 30 m, 50 m and 100 m (see table below).

drawings at the back of this manual.
Antenna installation
Select a location to weld the grounding stud bolt (M6), keeping in mind the length of
the grounding cable RW-4747 (Included as installation materials) is 340 mm. The lo-
cation for welding the grounding stud bolt should allow the antenna ground and mast
ground to be connected with the grounding cable (to ground lightning strikes). For de-
tailed measurements, refer to the outline drawings at the back of this manual.
For information on wiring the antenna cable, refer to the manual included with the an-
tenna unit.
