44.5-5 ASSEMBLY MANUAL

6. Now assemble all the boom sections, using 1/4-20 x 2-1/2” bolts and locknuts.

7. Pair up the remaining 3/4” element sections and 7/8” x 30” sleeves and mount to the ring clamps as in step #4,

following the Dimension Sheet for length.

8. Now adjust ELEMENT SPACING following the Dimension Sheet. Since the Driven Element is fixed, use it as

the primary measurement reference. Dimensions given are “center to center” but can also be used with a meas-

uring tape, hooked and measured “edge to edge”. After setting spacing, align elements with Driven Element and

tighten the 1/4-20 x 1” ring clamp bolts.

9. Before installing the balun, thread a 3/8-32 seal nut all the way onto both block connectors, black Neoprene

side facing out. Attach balun and tighten connectors gently using a 7/16” end wrench. Then back the seal nuts

out and finger-tighten firmly up against the face of the connectors (or tighten gently with 1/2” end wrench). A lot of

torque is unnecessary. Secure balun coil to the boom with two nylon cable ties. If the feed connector will be

inaccessible after installation, install a feedline section forward to the balance point. Secure with harness ties.

10. Pick up the boom and mark the balance point. Center the BOOM TO MAST PLATE here, 6” length horizontal

and secure with two 2” U-bolts, cradles, stainless lockwashers and nuts. Two 2” U-bolts are supplied for

attaching the antenna to the mast.

This completes the ASSEMBLY. When the antenna is installed in position on the mast, the main feedline can be

attached and sealed at that time. REMEMBER to support the feedline at the antenna boom and on the mast.

Leave an adequate feedline loop for rotation around the tower. Mount horizontally polarized VHF and UHF anten-

nas at least 40” above or below this antenna to minimize interaction.
