a.
For elevation adjustment, adjust the mast-mount clamp position along the long installation hole
in the L-mounting bracket.
b.
For azimuth adjustment, loosen nuts on the U-bolt and rotate the U-bolt around the mast.
Reinstall the nuts after the adjustment.
c.
Set the inclinometer to a required angle and keep the water drop horizontal. Perform steps
to adjust the antenna to the required angle.

Antenna cable
As a best practice, use a high-quality, low-loss antenna cable. Coaxial cable loses efficiency as the
frequency increases. This causes signal loss. Cable length also affects cable efficiency. The longer the
cable, the greater the loss. Make sure the cable is as short as possible.
