Antenna Location & Mounting
The CP6 is a compact vertical antenna using loading-coil radials. The compact size offers many options on mounting
location. When choosing a mounting location, keep the following factors in mind:
(1) Resonant frequency of HF antennas can change based on location. Antenna should be mounted away from trees, build-
ings and other antennas.
(2) If mounting near house or balcony, best performance will be achieved if mounted at least 15 feet away from structure.
(3) To avoid unsafe conditions, do not install near electrical or power lines.
