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.
