Figure 17.
Reel assembly and two-support dipole antenna.
Tie the halyard to the best available supports (tree, fence
post, vehicle) at a height of 4 feet or higher.
If two
properly oriented supports are available, erect the two-
support dipole antenna as illustrated in Figure 17.
If
only one support is available, erect a sloping dipole or
inverted V dipole as shown in Figure 18.
NOTE:
The dipole RF cable should be at right angles to the antenna wires
for the first few feet from the connection at the insulator. Lay
the dipole RF cable as straight as possible. Do not allow the cable
to form loops.
