   PRECAUTIONS for mounting
!
●Check if the connecting cable fits into the antenna connector. If they don’t match, it could cause damages or disconnection.
●While driving, the antenna could fall down and SWR could be higher due to the lack of ground contact area.
●Placing any other antennas or electrical conductors nearby this product could make SWR higher or fluctuateresonance frequency.

How to Adjust
1. Make sure to choose the right terminal, according to the right fig.
2. Slide the Tuning Bracket to the designated terminal.
3. Adjust the length of the element to the designated length, shown in the right fig.
4. Measure SWR at operational freq. Cut the element in case tuning freq is lower.
5. Extend the element in case tuning freq is higher.
*Freq band could be narrower depending on the distance with a human body. **Tuning Bracket should be fixed at Terminal 0 when used at 3.5/3.8MHz.

Precautions for using
This antenna is only for ham radio. Do not use this for other purposes.Operation outside the specification might damage the antenna.Adjust the antenna correctly. Elevated SWR could damage the antenna.Never attempt to modify or fix the antenna by yourself.Do not touch the antenna while transmitting.
How to use
1. Make sure all the screws are securely tightened.
2. Mount the antenna to the base etc.
3. Keep the antenna as vertically as you can for better transmitting.
4. Measure SWR before using.
