Installing the radio
assembly on the feed

If the radio assembly is already attached to the feed arm, skip this
section and go to
Connecting the feed arm to the antenna
reflector on page 26.
Follow these steps to install the radio assembly on the feed arm:
1. Place the O-ring in the circular depression in the square end
of the feed arm. See
see Figure 23.
2. Align the square end of the radio assembly with the square

to install the M4 Allen screws, but do not fully tighten them.
3. Align the bolt holes on the top of the transmitter with the bolt
holes on the bottom of the feed arm.
4. Install the 5/16-18 bolts in the aligned holes. Finger tighten
them; do not tighten them further at this time.
