PLEASE READ THIS MANUAL IN ITS ENTIRETY BEFORE ATTEMPTING INSTALLATION.
This kit contains the following:
1x Antenna Assembly
1x balun
1x Pigtail strain relief fitting
1x coaxial cable
1x Inverted V mounting kit (1x yoke, 1x insulated cable)
Halyards and pulleys required to hoist and support the antenna are not supplied, however they can be purchased sepa-
rately from Barrett Communications (Halyard and Pulley Kit P/N BCA91201). It is recommended that the halyards used to
support the antenna be either UV stabilised dacron cord or wire rope and that pulleys be of stainless steel construction.
For a 10-15m mast with an antenna in inverted V configuration, rods or stakes should be inserted into the ground at least
9m away from the mast in order to secure the antenna ends. In this configuration the mast must also have an offset or
out-rigger bracket, at least 0.8 metres long, to hold the antenna away from the mast. Barrett can supply a offset bracket
and pulley system (BCA90200).
As with all antenna installations, ensure the antenna is as far from sources of electrical interference as possible and in a
position that makes it impossible for the antenna to come in contact with high voltage overhead mains wiring.
It is highly recommended that antennas be installed by suitably qualified personnel.
