Long Anchor Bush.
When fitting the long anchor bush base, clear access to both the inside and the
outside of the vehicle bodywork is required. When the base is fitted to a fibre-glass body, a ground
plane is required for optimum efficiency. This ground plane should consist of strips of aluminium
alloy or similar conducting material fitted to the inside surface at the selected antenna site, and
should be as near to x/2 diameter as possible.
Drill a (12,7 mm) (0,5 in) hole through the structure. Remove the locking nut, earthing bracket
and contact plate from the anchor bush and slide them off the feeder cable, remove the cover nut
and rubber sealing washer. Pass the feeder cable through the hole in the structure, then contact
plate, the earthing bracket, the nut and the lock nut. Place the sealing washer in position, screw on
the cover nut and attach the antenna rod assembly using the coin slot or Allen grub screw. Run the
cable over the best route to the radiotelephone avoiding sharp bends and jagged edges. Assemble
rod and check insulation as described for
Standard Base.
