For best results:
-
Mount the antenna as high up as the cable length / location permits, with optimal line-
of-sight to the receiver
-
Attach to a pipe / mast if possible
-
If mounted near other antenna, maintain a separation of at least 300mm (~1 foot)
-
Avoid placement near close metal objects as unpredictable disturbance can result
-
Avoid placing on the side of a building or tower as directivity can be expected
-
Mount antenna facing vertically for proper polarization and avoid mounting up-side
down as the antenna will not drain correctly.
