will be placed. Remove the paper backing from the
foam seal to expose the contact cement, then lay
the foam seal in place, adhesive side down, and
press down firmly to bring the adhesive into full
contact along the bottom.

from below-decks up through the cable access hole

force; finger-tight is sufficient. If you are
connecting more than one RF cable, label both
ends of each RF cable to match its antenna
baseplate connector (RF1, RF2, RF3, RF4).
