Page 12: Mounting
MOUNTING Contact with any metal or non-metallic structure can capacitively load the antenna, which may cause unrepeatable results. Therefore, make sure that no part of the dipole elements or bowties is in contact with the tripod or tower, particularly in vertically-polarized tests. Where possible, run the feed cable Before connecting any straight one meter or more back from the Model 3142E BiConiLog™... -

Page 18: Typical Data
TYPICAL DATA Typical Antenna Factor and Gain Distance for the ANSI 3-meter and 10-meter calibrations is measured from the antenna midpoint, and for SAE 1-meter calibrations the distance is measured from the antenna tip. Midpoint is defined as half the distance between the small elements and the bowties, which is about 45 cm from the small end tip. -
