INSTALLATION
For best performance:
•
The antenna should be mounted as high as possible (VHF signal is line of sight so height matters).
•
Please keep the VHF Antenna’s cable away from other cables.
•
Please keep the antenna vertical for the best performance.
•
Please keep the antenna away from large metal objects and other radiating devices like RADAR, TV and GPS and
other antennas (minimum distance: 1m / 3,3‘).
•
Pay Attention: the miminum bend radius must be 6cm (2.4’’)
•
To install the PL259 adaptor/connector on the RG-8X coax cable, fit the PL259 adaptor on the FME connector and
screw the nut counter clockwise (no soldering required).
