Attaching the Coax Cable*

Posts
Remove the rubber boot from the
matching transformer. Slide the rubber
boot over the coax cable and install the
connector. If your coax cable has the
connector already on it, you will need to
cut an X in the boot hole so that the boot
will slide over the connector. Attach the
coax cable to the matching transformer.
Then, connect the rubber boot to the
body of the matching transformer, as in
Figure 15.

Mounting the Antenna

Figure 16
*Included in FVHD45C models only.
Locate the two posts on the underside of
the front assembly (Figure 14). Place two
washers on each post. Loosely thread a
small nut onto each post. Slide one fork of
the matching transformer between a set of
washers. Repeat for the other fork on the
other post. Tighten the nuts, making sure
that the forks are still connected.
Place the mast clamp insert inside the
mast clamp so that the flat side of the mast
clamp insert presses against the boom.
The holes in both parts should align. Insert
the ends of the U-bolt through the holes.
The mast should be placed in-between the
U-bolt and the mast clamp insert. Thread
a large nut on each end of the U-bolt.
Tighten the nuts until the U-bolt securely
holds the mast in place. The U-bolt
assembly will handle up to a 2.0" outer
diameter mast.

Helpful Tips

Be sure the matching transformer is on the
bottom of the antenna.
Point the front of antenna toward stations.
Tape downlead to mast to prevent wind
whipping.
