4.5 Antenna Installation

Follow the antenna manufacturer's instructions for proper installation of
the antenna. Using the proper mounting hardware and bracket ensures a
secure mounting arrangement with no pattern distortion or detuning of
the antenna.
Regardless of the antenna brand, mount the antenna as far away as pos-
sible from obstructions such as buildings, metal objects, and dense
foliage. Choose a location that provides a clear path in the direction of
the associated stations.
NOTE: Strong fields near the antenna can interfere with the operation
of low-level circuits and change the values of the received
data. For this reason, mount the antenna at least 10 feet
(3 meters) from the radio and other electronic equipment.
