Antenna connection.
Connect the 1/4 wave antenna onto the BNC socket by first removing the cable gland
from the enclosure. Now attach the antenna on to the BNC socket and then pass the
antenna through the cable gland. Screw the gland into the enclosure and tighten with a
21mm AF spanner. Finally tighten the cable gland around the antenna.
For even better results, use an external antenna (AE434). Follow the same procedure
but instead pass the coaxial cable through the cable gland and crimp on the 50 ohm BNC
plug supplied with the AE434.
