2. Loosely assemble the dual "U" bolt mounting bracket onto the crossarm as shown in Figure 3.
3. Lift the antenna into position, hold it upright and slide its "U" bolt assembly onto the mast.
4. Orient the antenna in the desired direction, then tighten the hex nuts on the "U" bolts sufficiently for
supporting the antenna.
Description
The J-series Yagi antennas are heavy duty 75-ohm or 50-ohm antennas, for MATV and CATV applications.
Assembly and Mounting
1. Consult Figure 1 or 2 and Table 1 or 2, then assemble the elements onto the crossarm in their proper
positions as denoted by their length. Note that the back of the crossarm is the end with the orange
plastic plugs. DO NOT overtighten the hex-bolts securing the elements.
