Put one hose clamp over each end of each tube. Insert the loop ends into the 7/16 tubes.
Don’t force them. Keep them straight as they go in. Leave them loose for tunning the
SWR later. The tubes will have enough friction to stay without the hose clamps being
tightened.
INSTAL THE ELEMENTS
The Rod elements are labeled with color bands using the
standard resistor color codes. Starting from the rear of
the antenna, the first rod is R1 and the last rod is R13.
R1 is the reflector and R2 is the first director. A chart is
provided and the element colors are listed for each element.
Install them on the boom in the proper location using the
half washer, saddle and 8-32 x 2 inch bolts nuts and lock
washers. Because of different size boom sections, some
bolts need to be longer to mount the element. These bolt
lengths are listed on the next page.
