NOTE
: If your antenna is mounted more than three feet above ground, a resonant system
must be added for proper operation.
The radial system can serve to guy the system if insulators are used at the proper lengths
shown. This system must be grounded for lightning protection. Connect a ground wire to
one U-bolt on the antenna base and run it to a buried, 8 foot (250 cm) ground rod by the
shortest route. If you are ground mounting your antenna, install it as shown in Figure 4.
You must install an 8 foot ground rod as shown.
CAUTION: Keep the radials out of reach of children or pets. They are HOT with RF
proportional to the power of the antenna.
