Cable Length
📏 Coaxial Cable Length Limit:
-
For standard installations using RG-58 coaxial cable, the recommended maximum length is 15 meters (50 feet) to ensure optimal signal quality.
-
For longer cable runs or more challenging layouts, we recommend using a GPS signal extender such as the QL-130-GPS-EXTENDER.
-
Custom cable assemblies with alternative lengths and connector types are available upon request to meet specific installation requirements.
Installation
🛠️ Installation Instructions:
-
Attach the antenna to the supplied pole bracket or custom mast using U-bolts
-
Connect the TNC coaxial cable to the antenna and route it securely to the receiver
-
Ensure a gentle drip loop is made before entering any enclosure
-
If using a plastic housing, ensure the top surface is non-metallic and allows signal penetration
Location
📍 GPS Antenna Location Guidelines:
-
Mount in a location with a clear, unobstructed view of the sky
-
Avoid mounting near large metal surfaces or electronics that may cause interference
-
Minimum separation from other antennas: at least 1 meter (3 feet)
