Caution!
LA800 is a RECEIVE ONLY antenna. Do not transmit with it or its circuitry will be severely
damaged, maybe even beyond repair.
As pictured below, mount the LA800 loop element to a (non-supplied) antenna mast, using
the supplied U-bolts.
Antenna masts are typically sold at home centers.
If you are installing an antenna for the first time, for your own safety as well as
others, seek professional assistance.
Installation of this antenna near power lines is dangerous. Do not work on the
system or connect or disconnect cables during periods of lightning activity.
Do not work on a wet or windy day.
Do not locate the antenna near overhead power lines or other electric light or
power circuits, or where it can come into contact with such circuits. When
installing the antenna, take extreme care not to come into contact with such
circuits, as they may cause serious injury or death.
