The assembly gets covered with clear heatshrink tubing from the edge of the copper to the end
of the PEX plug. Slide the tubing over the loading coil until it contacts the edge of the copper

This completes the loading coil.

Populate the DS1 Antenna Mount board as shown in the sequence below. The remaining 1/4-20
nut is for securing the antenna to a user supplied 1/4-20 stud, via the center hole in the board.
The remaining #8 spade crimp connector is for securing the 16.5' counterpoise under the 8-32
SS wing nut.
All that remains is to plug in the loading coil into the top BNC and thread the telescoping whip into the
top exposed stud of the loading coil. Open the whip to full length.
