Antenna Mast
Step 1: Select Mounting Location
Select mounting location on vehicle. The antenna can be mounted in any CB mount or antenna mounting point on the vehicle. For best performance mount the antenna above the metal cab (it does not need to be above the cab wind deflector).
Depending on the type of truck, there may be built-in antenna mounting points. If the vehicle does not have built-in mounting points, the antenna includes a mounting bracket that will work on vehicles with mirror rails. The antenna will also work with third party CB antenna mounts.
NOTE: Mount at least 12 inches from any other antennas. Free of obstructions.
NOTE: Do not use Blue Thread locker on Antenna cable connection points. These are RF connectors and adding Blue Threadlocker will impede performance

Assemble The Antenna
Once you have determined the best location for the antenna and have determined
if Mast Extensions are needed, insert cable through mast.
NOTE: Mast Extensions may not be needed depending on your mounting point.
If using Mast Extension(s) add thread locker (packets provided) to thread
points(s). Screw into place.
NOTE: Be sure the antenna is the correct height before applying thread locker.
Add thread locker (packets provided) to thread point and screw on the Side Exit Adapter. Do not sure Blue Thread locker on Antenna cable connection points. These are RF connectors and add Blue Threadlocker will impede performance
NOTE: If you choose to use this SS cable exit fitting, pls screw it to
the mast Rod first before threading the cable through
Antenna Spring (can be used optionlly)
