Thank you for choosing a Shakespeare product. Shakespeare
works hard to build reliability and durability into all of its products
for maximum customer satisfaction. Customer comments are
welcome. Before installing, please study the diagram and check
parts supplied against those listed.
IMPORTANT: Please read all instructions before installing.
The Shakespeare Galaxy
Antenna is a versatile antenna for receiving Sirius Satellite Radio.
The antenna's versatile mounting permits attaching the antenna
directly to a flat surface, to the included Pedestal Mount kit, to an
optional extension mast (1"-14 thread), or to a Shakespeare Style 4720
Rail Mount (sold separately). When the pedestal base is used, the kit allows
routing the antenna's coax cabling with or without passing the cable through
the mounting surface. In all cases, a receiver capable of receiving Sirius
Satellite Radio is required (not supplied).
Supplied parts:
(1) SRA-40 Antenna with 6" cable and TNC Female connector
(1) 25' Coax Cable with TNC Male and SMB connectors
The length of the cable run from the antenna to the satellite radio receiver can be extended by
using the one of the cable kits listed on page 6 (each sold separately). Note: These cables
replace the 25' cable supplied with the antenna, and must be used as supplied. They cannot
be lengthened, shortened, or connected together as extensions.
(1) Bag containing: (1) Extension shaft, (1) Lockwasher, (1) Retaining nut
(1) 1"-14 Thread Adapter
(1) Rubber O-ring
(1) Surface Mounting Flange
(1) Mounting Gasket with knife-slit for passing the coax cable
