Check the shipment.
As soon as you receive your antenna,
BEFORE
signing for the shipment:
a. Check to be sure all the material has arrived.
b. Check for evident damage to any of the boxes.
c. If any boxes are missing, or if any are obviously damaged, describe the
problem in a WRITTEN note on the shipping papers BEFORE signing them.
Then call Shively right away, and we’ll do everything we can to correct the
situation.
Important!
Never store the antenna system outdoors, boxed or otherwise. Take
pains to keep the antenna components dry. You will need to purge mois-
ture from the interior of the antenna components before applying trans-
mitter power, and purging will be much more time-consuming if the
components get wet.

NOTE
Use an anti-seize compound to minimize galling on stainless steel
threads.
