12 Raymarine 37STV Satellite TV System
Installing the antenna
Preparing the antenna
1. Using a 5 mm allen key,
remove the antenna dome
retaining bolts and dome.
2. Remove the foam transit
restraints from the antenna
base.
3. Replace and secure the
antenna dome.
Preparing the mount
1. Using adhesive tape, attach the tem-
plate to the mounting surface, ensur-
ing that it is parallel to your boat’s
centreline as marked on the tem-
plate.
2. Using a suitable hole saw, remove
the shaded center portion.
3. Drill four 10 mm holes in the positions
indicated.
It is good practice to countersink the
mounting holes, and smooth the
edges of the center hole with a
suitable file to avoid damage to the
mounting surface.
Securing the antenna
Secure the antenna to the
base using bolts, spring
washers and flat washers.
The bolts should be
tightened to ensure that
the foam sealing ring is
compressed to prevent
water ingress.
