NOTE: Every vehicle is different in style. The following guide is for installation in
most common vehicles.
STEP 1: ASSIGNING ANTENNA LOCATION
NOTE: Using an automotive hoist is recommended for an easier access and safety.
STEP 2: VEHICLE PREPARATION
NOTE: Install the antenna as high as possible from the ground
2.1 Remove any obstructions if required to access the interior (eg: bottom shield, wheel well shield).
2.2 Locate the antenna on a vehicle frame that is connected to the main body to ground the
antenna tuning box.
BOTTOM SHIELD
The antenna whip should reach an
inside surface of a bumper

• The most important part of the installation is to determine the antenna location on a vehicle.
• An SUV will have more open areas as opposed to a low-profile sport vehicle.
• The most ideal locations for a single and dual antenna installation are shown below.

DUAL ANTENNA VERSIONS
OPTION 3 OPTION 4
STEP 3: ANTENNA INSTALLATION
3.1 Once location has been determined fasten the antenna housing with the 4 self-tapping screws
to the vehicle frame.
3.2 Clean the bumper area with a degreasing solvent or detergent before applying the tape against
the antenna whip. Avoid bubbles under the tape to prevent moisture.
Install the antenna as vertically as
possible and away from metallic
objects (lights, radiator, gas tank
when installed at the back, etc.).
TAPE
NOTE: Avoid air gaps
in between tape and
bumper.
NOTE: The antenna performance depends on how vertical and how elevated the
antenna whip is from the road surface.
STEP 4: CABLE ROUTING
4.1 Route the input cable through the engine compartment and rewall into the vehicle where the
radio is located.
4.2 Keep cables away from any moving parts.
4.3 Secure all cables with tie wraps in the engine compartment.
NOTE:
• Do not connect the input cable into the radio until the
tuning procedure (STEP 5) is complete.
• After routing attach loose connector (supplied with the antenna).

STEP 5: ANTENNA TUNING
5.1 Using a VNA follow the tuning procedure below and measure at the end of the input cable
before connecting to the radio.
5.2 A VNA or Vector analyzer will give you performance results for specic
frequency ranges bandwidth and is a best choice for tuning the antenna.
NOTE: For dual antenna installation both antennas must be tuned independently
and then connected with a power divider to the radio.
REMINDER: Put cap covers back on after antenna
tuning is complete
