DESCRIPTION
2x5/8 l Ground Plane base station colinear antenna for land and marine service. It works on
135...175 MHz by using the cutting diagram enclosed. The matching coil is DC feeded for a
perfect protection from the static discharges. GPF 22-N is made of fiberglass, non-corrosive
aluminium, stainless steel and its die-cast strong base assures the maximum robustness and the
best performance. Tuning is easy by following the attached directions

1) Unlock the hexagonal socket
bottom screw using the enclosed
key.
2) Remove the internal coil.
3) Remove the top cap and push
the internal whip to the top
4) Pull the internal whip and re_
move it.
5) Unlock the central coil. Choose
the working frequency and cut the
whips according to the suitable
“Typical tuning diagram”.
NOTE: Use the curves just as a
guide. For fine-tuning please use
an SWR-Meter.
6) Insert the whip from the bottom
7) Mount and lock the coil, assem_
ble the top cap.
8) Lock the bottom screw.
9) Finally assemble the radials and
the side mounting bracket.
