Shortest Element
Extension
Figure 12
Longest Element
Extension
Place each element extension beside the element to which it will
connect. The shortest element extension will connect to the shortest
element on the back assembly, and the longest element extension
will connect to the longest element. The element extensions should
decrease in length as they near the center of the antenna (Figure 12).
One element sleeve will be used to connect each element extension to
its corresponding element.
Slide the element sleeve over the element. Align the holes in the
element sleeve and element. Then, slide the element extension into
the element sleeve. Align the holes in the element sleeve and element
extension. Insert a small screw through the top of each hole, and
thread a small flange nut onto each screw. Repeat for connecting each
element extension to an element. See Figure 13.
