1-1. DESCRIPTION & SPECIFICATION JPC-7 is a Mini portable antenna designed for field communications, simple and quick to set up, a person can be completed in 5 minutes. The new version of the JPC-7 optimizes the inductor coil again by using manganese steel material, increasing the strength of the shrapnel for more reliable contact with the coil, and adding grooves in the contact position so that the contact can be accurately seated on the coil.

Insert the BALUN plug into the corresponding screw holes to connect with Vbase
(the plug does not distinguish between left and right).
Screw the 2 set of BRASS CONNECTORs into the V-BASE. There are many slots on
the V-BASE that you can choose to mount in, allowing the DP antenna to be
positioned at different angles.

Multi-band coil adjustment reference data We consider the end that connects to
the ALUMINUM ARM to be the lower end and the section that connects to the
TELESCOPIC WHIP to be the upper end. a. 40-meter band: The position marked by
the red line at the lower end of the coil.
b. 20-meter band: The position marked by the red line at the upper end of the
coil.
c. 15-meter band: The position of the top two turns of the coil.
support@chelegance.com www.chelegance.com
d. 10-meter band: Pull out all 10 sections of the TELESCOPIC WHIP, and then
retract one of theWHIP to about 7cm (This band does not require the use of a
coil). Please note: To adjust the length of the antenna, simply shorten the
whip on one of the sides; no adjustment is needed on the other side. Finally,
connect the TELESCOPIC WHIP to the top of the MULTI-BAND COIL after it is
fully extended.
NOTE 1
The above data is based only on the antenna at the maximum angle of the
V-shaped setup. And the data will be different if the angle is changed.
*NOTE 2
The shrapnel contact will only touch the marked coil and not the neighboring
coils.
