How to connect the antenna
In general a 12 metres antenna installation is preferred and can be made using an 8
metres whip and 4.5 metres feeder or a 10 metres whip and 2.5 metres feeder. In both
cases the whip should be mounted on a pole providing sufcient height to have the
Antenna Tuning Unit mounted such that it allows for the feeder to be erected at an
angle of 45 to 60 degrees, creating a combined 12 metres vertical antenna system.

The feeder wire is terminated at the antenna horn at the top of the Antenna Tuning
Unit. Use a supporting insulator near the ATU to carry mechanical stress from the
feeder wire. Use a short exible part of the feeder wire between the supporting
insulator and the ATU horn in order not to apply mechanical stress to the antenna horn.
To maximize the radiated power and avoid ash
over, keep distance to metal parts as long as
possible, preferable more than 100 mm. Use a
short direct ground connection from the ground
clamp at the bottom end at the Antenna Tuning
Unit to nearest suitable metal ground plane.
It is recommended to use the ATU mounting
bracket for the physical tting of the ATU.
