Chimney Mounting
The chimney is often an easy and convenient
mounting location. Note that the chimney
must be strong enough to support the
antenna in high winds. Do not use a chimney
that has loose bricks or mortar. A good
chimney mount makes use of a 5 or 10 foot ¼
inch diameter steel mast, and a heavy-duty
two strap clamp-type bracket. Install the upper
bracket below the top course of bricks, and
the lower bracket two or three feet below the
upper bracket. For maximum strength, space
the brackets as much as possible.
Note:
Mount the extra “Warning Label” supplied with
the antenna hardware to the mast at eye level after
installation has been completed.
How to Install Your Antenna
1.
Assemble your new antenna on the ground in accordance with
separate assembly instructions supplied with it.
2.
On the ground, clamp antenna to mast, pull enough transmission
line to connect to antenna.
