Default Antenna MOUNTED?

How do I mount a RUGGED RADIO antenna? Is there any pics or INFO for this? Do I mount it to the Aluim roof? Do I drill a hole what size?

It has threads and it looks like a notch area on the threads is this the size hole I need? If so then I have about 2 turns to turn and tighten the mount!!

Thanks for the help ROG!!

Do you know if it's a ground plane antenna or a zero ground plane antenna? Depending which type it is will tell you where you should mount it. If it's a ground plane you will want to mount it in the center of your roof so you get the best reception possible. It should only require about a 3/8 hole in the roof to mount it.

Our standard antennas are VHF 1/2 Wave No Ground Plane antennas.

Unscrew the brass ring, drill a 3/8" hole in the roof, or your tab, bedside, etc etc.

Insert mount from the bottom with nylon washer underneath, thread brass piece on from the top, tighten, done!

Thanks for the order Daniel.
