Operation Instructions
The 914 manual tapped whip antenna should now be screwed into the base and
spring mounted on the front of the vehicle.
The operation frequency being used on the transceiver should now be
selected on the antenna. This is done with the supplied jumper lead as indicated
in the diagram below and the following example (Note:- this is an example only and
your antenna will be manufactured with different frequency taps.)
The 914 manual tapped whip antenna used in the example has the following
frequencies:-
Channel 1 4030 kHz Channel 2 4760 kHz
Channel 3 5190 kHz Channel 4 5254 kHz
Channel 5 7180 kHz Channel 6 8199 kHz
Channel 7 9134 kHz Channel 8 9145 kHz
Channel 9 10567 kHz Channel10 14567 kHz
When using Channel 1, frequency 4030 kHz, the jumper
lead should be removed from the bottom antenna socket
and stored in the vehicle.
On all other channels the jumper lead is required:-
For Channel 2, frequency 4760 kHz, the jumper is
plugged into the bottom socket then wound tightly around
the antenna and the other end plugged into the socket
marked 4760.
For Channel 3, frequency 5190 kHz, the jumper is
plugged into the bottom socket then wound tightly around
the antenna and the other end plugged into the socket
marked 5190.
And so on to Channel 10.
Note:- It is important for correct operation of the whip antenna to have the
right frequency tap selected as indicated above and that the jumper lead is
wrapped tightly around the antenna between sockets.
