INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the S9v 43', a high-performance lightweight
telescoping fiberglass vertical designed for Amateur Radio use from 80 through 6
meters. We believe the S9v 43' (hereinafter also referred to as the S9v) to be
the best value in a high-performance 'tall' vertical and we sincerely hope that you
enjoy your antenna.
Please read this guide in its entirety FIRST before installing your S9v. The S9v
is easy to install and deploy, but reading through this guide first will make it a
painless and enjoyable experience.
BEFORE YOU GET STARTED...
The S9v 43' consists of rugged, telescoping fiberglass tubes with a continuous,
insulated vertical element wire inside the tubes. The base tube functions as a
hard shell case, protecting the collapsed fiberglass sections. The antenna is
shipped with heavy-duty rubber end caps to retain the telescoping sections.
The antenna is shipped with all the components and hardware you need to install
it, including a heavy-duty stainless steel pipe mount clamp. You will need to
furnish a Phillips head screwdriver, coax cable, an antenna tuner, a 4:1 unun, a
54" long x 1-1/2" galvanized plumbing pipe (1.9" max OD) for the ground mount,
some radials, and weatherproofing material.
