wrapped tightly around the antenna between sockets.
The 914 manual tapped whip antenna should now be screwed into the base and spring
mounted on the front of the vehicle.
The
. This is done with the supplied jumper lead as indicated in the diagram below
and the following example (Note:- this is an example only and your antenna will be
manufactured with different frequency taps.)
The 914 manual tapped whip antenna used in the example has the following frequencies:-
Channel 1 4030 kHz
Channel 2 4760 kHz
Channel 3 5190 kHz
Channel 4 5254 kHz
Channel 5 7180 kHz
Channel 6 8199 kHz
Channel 7 9134 kHz
Channel 8 9145 kHz
Channel 9 10567 kHz
Channel 10 14567 kHz
When using Channel 1, frequency 4030kHz, the
jumper lead should be removed from the bottom
antenna socket and stored in the vehicle.
On all other channels the jumper lead is required:-
For Channel 2 , frequency 4760kHz, the jumper is
plugged into the bottom socket then wound tightly
around the antenna and the other end plugged into
the socket marked 4760.
For Channel 3 , frequency 5190kHz, the jumper is
plugged into the bottom socket then wound tightly
around the antenna and the other end plugged into
the socket marked 5190.
An so on to channel 10.
