HUSTLER RESONATOR
Hustler resonators are designed for use with our 54-inch mast, models MO-1, MO-2, MO-3 and our 22” MO­4 mast. Under the clutch nut is a barrel shaped clutch sleeve. The nut and sleeve work together to hold the rod. If you find it necessary to remove the clutch nut use caution, as the clutch sleeve will fall out and is easily lost. To assemble your resonator loosen the clutch nut and slide the rod 4 inches into the receptacle tube. Tighten the clutch nut to secure whip and screw the resonator onto the mast. Using a good quality V.S.W.R meter check the resonate frequency. If it is too low, loosen the clutch nut and push the tip rod into the tube in ¼ inch increments until the desired frequency is reached. To lower the resonate frequency extend the rod in ¼ inch increments. If it becomes necessary to trim the rod use a file to score the rod at the cut point. Always trim the rod at least 4” (10.16 cm) longer than the given lengths to insure it is not cut too short. Also note when using a resonator mounted on a MO-4 22” (55.88 cm) mast the required exposed tip rod length will be approximately 1” (2.54 cm) longer. Wear safety glasses or other adequate eye protection, place the rod on a table or similar sharp edge and use a hammer to snap off the excess rod. Use a file to deburr the rough end.
There are several accessories available for you Hustler HF mobile system.
VP-1 Multi-band adapter: accepts 3 resonators for multi-band use. RSS-2 Spring: mounts between resonator and mast.
QD-2 Quick Disonnect: recommend for easy removal of you mast.
