Attach Bow Tie Elements
The Model 3142D ships with the bow tie elements detached. To attach the bow
tie elements:
1.
For stability, mount the Model 3142D onto a tripod or tower. See
Mounting Instructions on page 21 for the steps to mount the antenna.
2.
Slide the narrow end of one of the bow tie elements into the
receptacle hole on the antenna boom, and then align the bow tie with
the receptacle on the boom.
Do not cross thread this connection or
permanent damage to the bow tie element could
occur.
3.
Insert one of the 10
–32 thumbscrew knobs into the opposite side of the
antenna boom from where you inserted the bow tie. Slowly tighten the
knob, taking care not to cross thread the connection.
4.
Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the second bow tie element.
