For the best results, mount the antenna away from trees or other
obstructions. Higher frequencies are noticeably affected by these
obstructions.

The antenna is easy to install on any antenna mast or optional
light-duty mount using simple hand tools. The antenna pack-
age includes these parts:

Mounting The Antenna

Outside Mounting

1. Attach the antenna mounting bracket to the bottom of the

antenna using the four #12 x 1/2" long self tapping screws
and four #12 split lockwashers

2. Attach both mast clamps, U-bolts, four 1/4" split lockwash-

ers, and four 1/4-20 hex nuts to the mounting bracket.
Note: 

Do not tighten the hex nuts.

3. Plug one end of the 75-ohm coaxial downlead cable to the

antenna’s jack and seal the connection with coax sealant tape
or a weather boot.

Note:

If your existing downlead is 300-ohm cable, you must

replace it with 75-ohm coaxial cable. (300-ohm cable requires a
matching transformer that significantly interferes with the
antenna’s operation.)

4. Mount the antenna on the mast, and secure it by tightening

the hex nuts evenly onto the U-bolts.
