Page 5: Deburring And Cautions
The tubing Mosley uses is made for us and the telescoping tolerances are very close. If you would try and force a piece of tubing to sleeve, which is not deburred, it will SEIZE. If this would happen you aren’t going to get them apart. -
Page 6: Assembly Of Boom
PRO-67-B V.2.S CAUTIONS < > In an attempt to keep the weight of the antenna down to a minimum, we are using a .035 wall on the small, single end tips. In their area of use, they are as strong as a heavier-walled piece. However, WHEN SECURING WITH THE #8 STAINLESS SHEET METAL SCREW, DON’T OVER TIGHTEN! Seat the screw flush with the tubing and stop. -

PRO-67-B V.2.S the smaller splices, align the numbers 1, 1, 1, which will position the holes correctly and secure with hardware (parts 61, 62, 63). Repeat this using the 3,3,3 for the last boom joint. < > Place caplug (part 64) on each end of boom. -
Page 8: Review Of Driven Elements
PRO-67-B V.2.S REVIEW OF DRIVEN ELEMENTS NOTE: There are several adjustments to the antenna. The Back Driven Element, color-coded RED, controls 12, 17 and 40. (The only pre-drilled adjustment on this element is the 40 meter end tips. However depending upon the installation the 12 and 17 meters can be adjusted. Contact our engineering department if you have a problem with the center frequency on these bands.) -

Page 12: Assembly Of Driven Elements
PRO-67-B V.2.S ASSEMBLY OF DRIVEN ELEMENTS < > FDE = Forward Driven Element, Color-Coded BROWN. < > Loosely install 8 plastic insulators (part 2) on the rectangle support plate (part 1) with lock washers and screws (parts 3,4). Place plastic caps (part 65) on the inboard end of the element sections (part 7) color coded BROWN. -

PRO-67-B V.2.S PLACING FDE/BDE ON BOOM < > Locate the BROWN color code for the FDE on boom. Place assembled FDE over color code and insert #48 clamping block (Part 24) on boom between FDE and boom. Place U-Bolt (Part 23) around boom, through clamping block and element support. -
Page 14: Placement Of Phasing Lines
PRO-67-B V.2.S PLACEMENT OF PHASING LINES ON DRIVEN ELEMENTS < > Note: The BEND IN THE PHASING LINES GO IN TOWARD EACH OTHER OVER THE BOOM. This will ensure that the lines are clear of the mast, however the phasing line closest to the mast will run near the mast. -

PRO-67-B V.2.S < > Place 5/8" end element into exposed end of trap. Place 5/8" end cap on element end tip. (Part 37) < > Place the YELLOW element on the YELLOW color coded spot on the boom. Tighten down, but remember elements will need to be checked for alignment along boom. -

PRO-67-B V.2.S ASSEMBLY OF MONO-PARASITIC Assembly of the 10 Meter Reflector, color coded BLACK < > Start with the BLACK coded elements. Refer to the drawings on this element.. < > Place inner elements into larger stiffener (Parts 46, 47, 48, 49) making sure screw holes are to the ground or bottom side of the element. -

PRO-67-B V.2.S PREPARING COAX FOR PHASING LINE HOOK UP < > Cut insulation on coax back 2-1/2" and form the braid of the coax into a leg of the line. NOTE: (Make sure the leads are 2-1/2" long including the #1021 solder lug! This length is critical.) <... -
Page 18: Placement Of Coax To Phasing Lines
PRO-67-B V.2.S PLACEMENT OF COAX TO PHASING LINES < > Locate the pre-drilled hole in the phasing line to the opposite side of the mast plate. The hole is 9 1/2" back from the BROWN front radiator. This side of the phasing line will receive the center or “HOT” section of the coax. This is important because it keeps the center of the coax the furthest from ground. -
Page 19: Suggestions
The antenna should be at least a 1/4 wave length from any artificial ground at the lowest operating frequency of the antenna. In the case of the PRO-67-B the lowest operating frequency is 40 meters or 7 MHz. With this in mind the antenna should be at least 34 feet away from any artificial ground.
