4.0 Mounting & Assembly The Model 3144 antennas are precision measurement devices. Handle your antenna with care. Mount the Model 3144 Log Periodic Dipole Array Antenna first, and then attach the elements to the antenna. Mounting Instructions SING NCLUDED OUNTING... - Page 16 To attach the included adapters to the Model 3144: If required, insert the 1/4–20 thread insert into the polarizing adapter. Remove the mounting knob from the mounting bracket on the antenna. Slide the polarizing adapter into the mounting bracket by placing the polarizing adapter placed between the shoulders of the mounting bracket.

(immunity) or receiver (emissions). Both horizontal and vertical polarizations are easily accomplished when the Model 3144 is mounted onto a tower or tripod. Due to the length of the low frequency elements, verify element clearance prior to switching the antenna to vertical polarization. - Page 22 For immunity testing, the electric field strength generated at a distance d can be approximated by: V / m = = distance, in meters G[dB]/10 = numeric gain (10 = antenna net input power, in watts An estimate of the power required for any field strength E can be obtained from Typical Data on page 23.
