Installation - Horizontal Configuration
1. Take the antenna in its box to its installation point, below the hoisting halyard.
2. Carefully remove antenna from box and - with
RESISTOR LOADS FACING DOWN -
lay on ground. Ensure wires do
not tangle.
3. Carefully remove tape and cable ties and extend each section one at a time until extended to full length (see below).
Ensure that tangles are avoided.
4. Attach ends of antenna to hoisting halyards and hoist until antenna is at a workable height off the ground. Note that
the drop wires should be hanging below the hoisted antenna.
5. Attach the drop wire loops to the sides of the balun and the insulated wire (connected to the insulators) to the top of
the balun, as shown below.
