2. Twist open the end slot of the first damper strip and slide it onto an antenna element as shown to start the outer row. Make sure the strip is against the outer edge of the outer support strip. Continue opening the slots and sliding the strip onto adjacent elements. 3. Install a second strip adjacent to the first so that they overlap across two antenna elements as shown. |
The second damper strip must be against the inner edge of
the outer support strip. Install a third damper strip
adjacent to the second and on the same side of the support
strip as the first. The second and third damper strips
must overlap across two antenna elements as shown. 4. Repeat Steps 2 and 3 for the inner row and include a fourth damper strip as shown. Make sure that the strips overlap across two antenna elements in three places for a standard antenna. A 900 MHz antenna requires overlap across only one element in two places as shown. 5. Repeat Steps 1 through 4 for the opposite half of the antenna to complete the installation. |
