Inspecting the antenna
parts
The antenna kit for each radio type is shipped in two boxes, as
shown in
Figure 2. The radio assembly is shipped separately. As
soon as possible, unpack and inspect the antenna parts and
hardware to make sure all parts have been received in good
condition.
Each main part is illustrated in the following sections, and the
small hardware parts are listed in
Table 2 and Table 3 on page 19.
If any parts appear to have been damaged in transit, immediately
contact the freight carrier. If any parts appear to be missing or
damaged but not as a result of handling in transit, contact your
dealer or distributor.
