Recycling Instructions

To protect the environment, please do not dispose of your Williams Sound equipment in the household trash. Instead, take the equipment to an electronics recycling center or return the product to the factory for proper disposal.

Assembly & Installation Procedure

  1. The ANT 034 can be mounted to an audio rack using the RPK 005 (a 1/2-width, single-space rack bracket, ordered separately). This is recommended when the transmitter will also be mounted in the rack.
  2. Thread the ANT 021 rubber duckie antenna onto the ANT 035 right angle F-connector. Turn the F-connector on the ANT 021 clockwise by hand until it is tightly connected.
  3. Install the washers with the smaller side facing the RPK 005 rack bracket as shown in Figure 1. Ensure correct orientation of  the washers for antenna isolation. Tighten the nut with moderate pressure using the appropriate size wrench.
  4. Thread one end of the WCA 086 3′ coax cable onto the back of the assembled bracket-antenna unit. Use fingers only to tighten.
  5. Attach the other end of the WCA 086 3′ coax cable to the F-Connector Antenna jack on the Williams Sound 72-76 MHz transmitter (PPA T35, T27). Use fingers only to tighten.
  6. Note: Do not bend the coax cable sharply at any point. The ANT 034 rubber duckie antenna should be kept vertical for optimal performance and to comply with FCC rules.

ANT 034 Assembly & Installation Procedure

  1. The ANT 034 can be mounted to an audio rack with the RPK 005 (a 1/2-width, single-space rack bracket, ordered separately). This solution is most commonly used when the transmitter will also be mounted in the rack.
  2. Thread the ANT 021 rubber duckie on to the ANT 035 (see figure 1). Turn the F- connector on the ANT 021 clockwise by hand until connection is tight.
  3. Install the washers with the smaller side facing the RPK 005 rack bracket as shown. Correct orientation of the washers is crucial to maintaining antenna isolation. Tighten the nut with moderate pressure using the proper size wrench.
  4. Thread one end of the WCA 086 3’ coax cable on to the back of the assembled bracket-antenna unit. Use fingers only to tighten.
  5. Attach other end of WCA 086 3’ coax cable to the F-Connector “Antenna” jack on the Williams Sound 72-76 MHz transmitter (i.e. PPA T35, T27). Use fingers only to tighten.
