Assembly Instructions | 17
1. For stability, mount the Model 3142E onto a tripod or tower. See
Mounting Instructions on page 19 for the steps to mount the antenna.
2. Slide the narrow end of one of the bowtie elements into the
receptacle hole on the antenna balun, and then align the bowtie with
the receptacle on the balun.
Do not cross thread this connection or
permanent damage to the bowtie element could
occur.
3. Insert one of the 10–32 thumbscrew knobs into the opposite side of the
balun from where you inserted the bowtie. Slowly tighten the knob,
taking care not to cross thread the connection.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the second bowtie element.
