۱. تنظیم او نصب کول
This section provides instructions for assembling and installing your FMUSER CB100 CB Base Antenna. It is recommended to have assistance for safe installation, especially when working at heights.
4.1. مجلس
- د اجزاو پیژندل: Lay out all antenna components and familiarize yourself with each part as shown in Figure 3.1.
- Attach Radiating Elements: Carefully connect the aluminum radiating elements to the antenna base unit. Ensure all connections are secure but do not overtighten. Refer to the diagram for correct order and orientation of elements.
- Install Ground Plane Radials: Attach the ground plane radials to the designated points on the antenna base. These typically extend outwards from the base.
- کواکسیل کیبل سره وصل کړئ: The antenna features an SO239 UHF Female connector. Connect your 50 Ohm coaxial cable (PL259 UHF Male connector) to this port. Ensure a tight, weatherproof connection.
- Verify Total Length: Once assembled, the antenna should measure approximately 18 feet in total length.

4.2. پورته کول
- د نصب کولو ځای غوره کړئ: Select a high, clear location free from obstructions (trees, buildings, power lines) to maximize signal range. A sturdy mast or pole is recommended.
- د نصبولو خوندي قوسونه: Attach the provided U-bolts and mounting brackets to your chosen mast or pole. Ensure the brackets are securely fastened and level.
- د انتن نصبول: Carefully lift the assembled antenna and secure its base to the mounting brackets using the provided hardware. Tighten all bolts firmly to prevent movement in wind.
- Route Coaxial Cable: Route the coaxial cable from the antenna to your CB radio, ensuring it is secured to the mast and building to prevent damage from wind or strain. Avoid sharp bends in the cable.
- ځمکني کول: Connect the antenna system to a proper earth ground using a heavy-gauge wire and a suitable grounding rod. This is crucial for lightning protection and optimal performance.
