BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Your antenna has elements which are resonant in the 30-54 MHz,
108-174 MHz, 450-470 MHz, 470-512 MHz, and 800-912 MHz
bands. They work together to give you frequency coverage from
30 MHz to 1300 MHz. Before you begin assembly, read this manual
and the Consumer Product Safety Commission information. For
your safety and convenience, plan each step of the installation
and purchase the necessary hardware in advance. The order in
which you perform the steps and the hardware required depends
on the mounting and connection methods you choose. Your an-
tenna comes complete with a matching transformer, 50 feet of
RG-6 coaxial cable with a F-to-BNC adapter.
We recommend two people assemble the entire antenna on the
ground, then mount the assembled antenna on the mast. The
following steps are required to assemble your antenna.
Warning: When you install your antenna, use extreme caution.
If the antenna starts to fall, let it go! It could contact overhead
power lines. If the antenna touches the power line, contact with
the antenna, mast, cable, or guy wires can cause electrocution
and death. Call the power company to remove the antenna. Do
not attempt to remove it yourself.
