Helix Antenna Installation
When selecting a location to mount the external antenna there are several issues to take into
consideration:
Mount the helix antenna so that it has a 360 degree view of the sky from 10 degrees above the
horizon.
The antenna must be at least 3 feet (1 Meter) from other antennas (including GPS antennas).
If mounting on a flat roof, avoid placing antenna near chimneys and other physical structures such
as air handling units etc.
If the roof is inclined, place the antenna far enough above the peak so the roof does not cause
signal blockage.
Mount the antenna so that it is stable and not susceptible to vibration and movement in windy
environments
Use only the coaxial cables that come with the antenna kit. Do not cut or modify the coaxial
antenna cable.
Use coaxial sealant, shrink-wrap tubing, electrical tape, or other suitable products to seal all
external cable connections to prevent moisture and corrosion damage.
