Construction:
[ ]
Begin by laying the boom on a flat surface. Find the driven-element holes and the two
sets of mast-mount holes (one for vertical and one for horizontal mounting). The mast-
mount holes are toward the
reflector
end of the antenna. Identify the director and
reflector ends of the boom before starting assembly.
[ ]
Find two (2) 54" director element sections and identify the tapped end of each. Insert
the tapped ends into the 1/4" holes drilled at the director end of the boom. Secure each in
place with 10-32 screws. If you do not anticipate disassembling your beam, apply a drop
of Locktite to each screw. Grip the element section gently with pliers when tightening.
