Cautions on installation
◆
This product is not suitable for mobile use. Please do not set it on the vehicle and drive.
◆
If there are other antennas or obstacles such as buildings near this antenna, this will cause
SWR degradation and resonance frequency shift. In that case, please change the mounting
position of the antenna.
!
◆
Make sure that the connector of the connection cable and the antenna connector are of the
same type.
If it is a different type, it can not be connected or it may be damaged.

● When installing or removing the antenna or adjusting the element, be careful not to open your
eyes at the end of the rod.
● Do not touch the antenna during and immediately after transmission. The fever can cause burns.
● Tighten the fixing screws firmly so that there are no accidents.
● When extending the rod, always keep in mind that there are no obstacles in the height direction.
● Do not use it outdoors when it is wet, as it is not waterproof.
● Do not use when the surface is wet, and use completely dry.
◆
To use this product, capacitive coupling with grounding or counterpoise is required.
Note that if the ground capacitance is insufficient, the VSWR characteristics will deteriorate,
especially in the low frequency band, and there is a high possibility that adjustment will not be
possible.
◆
On the structure shortened by the loading coil, the tuning band is narrow. If you want to check
where the tuning frequency is, we recommend using an antenna analyzer such as CAA-500Mark II.
