of antenna.
(b)
Remove six non-Torx drive screws used to attach antenna to fuselage.
(c)
Carefully lift antenna from fuselage avoiding any damage to the coaxial cable.
(d)
Disconnect the coaxial cable from the antenna connector.
(e) Put protective covers on the aircraft coaxial cable connector and the antenna coax
connector.
(2)
Install the ELT antenna.
(a) If required, ant existing aerodynamic sealant from antenna and clean antenna
mounting area.
(b) Put supplied o-ring in the antenna o-ring groove. If antenna is supplied with a Teflon
gasket, install gasket between antenna and fuselage.
(c)
Remove protective covers from the antenna and aircraft coaxial mating connector.
(d) Examine antenna and coaxial mating connectors to make sure they are clean and
