ASSEMBLYINSTRUCTIONS

1) The antenna is shipped in three boom sections. There are alignment marks to assure

proper assembly. The mid boom has a long rectangular bracket attached. This is the midpoint of

the antenna at D21. The front and rear sections have shorter 3 3/4" brackets attached at D13 &

D33. Assemble the three sections together so that the alignment marks match. You will have to

remove D17 & D31 and insert the boom sections into one another, then re install the two loops

and retighten the 4-40 hardware. A1/4" nut driver is required for this.

2) Locate the two 53" sub boom pieces, and note that the rear 53" section has six holes, and

the front section has only four. Check Figure 1 for the correct assembly layout, and lay out the

parts in order. Note that the clamshell brackets have alignment marks to assure proper assembly.

3) At this time assemble the two piece 3/4" sub boom using the supplied 1 1/4" hardware and

clamshell brackets, and do not tighten just yet. Attach the two 3" x 4" sub boom plates (small ones,

with no u-bolt holes) to the sub boom ends, and the short BM brackets on the main boom at

D13&33, using the 8-32 X 1 1/4" screws provided. Do not make them tight yet. Position the 3.5" x

4" boom to mast plate with u-bolt holes, at D21 and the large BM Bracket. Fasten the plate with

four 4-40 X 1 1/4" machine screws, nuts and lock washers. This is the balance point of the

antenna. Attach the two 2" stainless U-bolts in the boom to mast plate now.

4) Support the 3347LY on its support mast, with the 2" u-bolts and adjust the main boom until

the boom sag is minimized. Tighten the hardware to lock the sub boom plates in place. There

should be hardly any sag in the boom when this is accomplished. Attach the feedline and tape it to

the bottom of the boom. Seal all coax connections with silicone RTV or equivalent. Coat the back

of the female N connector on the antenna as well.

5) The SWR should be 1.5:1 or better. Additional tweaking can be accomplished by adjusting

the distance between the driven element and R1 or by adjusting the shape of the driven element.

6) If antennas are to be stacked, see "Instructions for Stacking Loop Yagis".
