Mounting the Antenna with the Cable Routed Outside the Pole

Before you permanently mount the antenna, you must test the mounting location for correct operation (Antenna Mounting Considerations).

  1. Route the cable through the pole-mount adapter Callout number one, and place the cable in the vertical slot Callout number two along the base of the pole-mount adapter.

  2. Screw the pole-mount adapter onto a standard 1 in. OD, 14 threads per inch, pipe-threaded pole (not included).

    Do not overtighten the adapter on the pole.

  3. Connect the cable to the antenna.
  4. Place the antenna on the pole-mount adapter and twist it clockwise to lock it in place.
  5. Secure the antenna to the adapter with the included M3 set screw Callout number three.
  6. With the antenna installed on the pole mount, fill the remaining gap in the vertical cable slot with a marine sealant (optional).
  7. Attach the pole to the boat if it is not already attached.
  8. Route the cable away from sources of electronic interference.
