Land Mobile Antenna
Magnetic Mounting (Optional)
Three magnetic mounts are provided for the antenna installation. These mounts will
withstand 100 mph wind force.
If the antenna cannot be mounted using the magnetic feet, the magnetic feet can be
removed and the mounting holes can be used to bolt the antenna onto a roof bracket
system.
Magnetic Mount Installation
The magnet mount consists of three individual high intensity magnets with rubber
coating. Each magnet has a stainless steel center bolt.
First attach the magnets to the antenna. There are three “legs” on the antenna where the
magnets are placed. Note the position of the two rubber washers just below and above
each antenna leg, the stainless steel washer above the upper rubber washer, and the
protective nut on top.
