The loop antenna aluminum tubing must not be grounded. It must remain electrically isolated from
its metal L-bracket mount via nylon shoulder washers.
Do not
remove these insulating shoulder
washers.
Mounting to a Rotator
The picture shows the RF-PRO-1B
®
Magnetic
Loop Antenna mounted to a customer supplied
rotator using customer supplied mast.
Many users utilize this configuration to take full
advantage of the antenna’s directional
characteristics.
Because of the antenna’s low weight and wind
loading a very low power rotator can be used
typical of the type used with TV antennas (A light
duty rotator is available from DX Engineering).
Hint:
When installing the one foot jumper with F
connectors (or any cables with F connectors), the optional
DXE-CIT-1
F Connector Tightening Tool is handy to
have in your tool box.
