PRELIMINARY
3.8 Visual Alignment
1.
Tighten mounting bolts just enough to allow radio to pivot up/down and right/left
with minimal effort.
2.
Tilt the radio so that it is roughly point towards the other end of the link.
3.
Insert the Visual Alignment Tool (VAT) into one of the 4 holes in the front
(antenna) face of the RADIO. The VAT is used to precisely orient (align) the radio
in the correct direction. Select the hole that allows the most convenient viewing of
the other end of link. The best viewing is achieved with your eye ~13 inches
(~33cm) from the VAT mirror. The radio is aimed at the point tangent to the top of
the red indicator when all three indicators (green/red/green) are in a line with equal
gaps between the indicators.

positioned at the top of the red indicator. See example below.
