Assemble the Antenna
. To assemble the antenna:
a. Lay the antenna on the ground with the base tube near the ground mount
pipe and unwind the vertical element wire from the base tube. Now, “walk
the wire” away from the antenna base tube in a straight line. Don’t pull on
the wire – the idea is to just un-roll the wire to its full length. Once the wire
is completely unrolled, you can pull small sections of the wire through your
hands to straighten the wire.
NOTE: The wire does NOT have to be perfectly straight, so don’t
spend a lot of time trying to straighten the wire!
b. Next, remove both the top and bottom rubber caps. Put these caps in your
pocket so that they will not be lost in the grass!
Unwind w ire straight from
base tube until it is fully
extended along the ground
