Roof Top Mount MOBILE ANTENNA

for 132-960 MHz

WHERE TO MOUNT THE ANTENNA

Center roof top mounting is recommended for best performance on cars, vans or trucks with metal tops.

For most center roof top installations, the underside of the mounting surface will be exposed by removing

the interior dome light, be sure mounting surface is a single thickness of sheet metal. This antenna may

also be mounted on any flat, horizontal, metallic surface.

The use of PTFE or similar lubricant on the threaded portions and O-Rings of the antenna, prior to assem-

bly, will protect from weather and ease future disassembly
