First you have to set the rudder in its mono antenna setting. The rudder has two
free bars and four knobs (Fig. 1-2). The bigger ones must be screwed in vertically
to block the free bars in place while the little ones can be screwed in two different
position: if placed on the inside part of the frame you will get the mono or three
antenna configuration (Fig. 1-3); if placed on the external part of the frame you
will get the two or four antenna configuration (Fig. 1-14).

block the free bars in place while the little ones can be screwed in two different
position: if placed on the inside part of the frame you will get the mono or three
antenna configuration (Fig. 1-3); if placed on the external part of the frame you
will get the two or four antenna configuration (Fig. 1-14).

To build the frame carrying the antennas you need the equipment shown in Fig.
1-15.
Fig. 1-15 – Two Antennas frame equipment
Take one of the wheeled frames and screw two junction pipes in it. Connect these
pipes with the non-wheeled frame (the white spots on it show you which side goes
down). Link the other two junction pipes and finally close the box with the other
wheeled frame.
Fig. 1-16 shows you how to build the box.
Now take the rudder and put it in the metallic junctions of the wheeled frames. Be
sure to lock it with the knobs showed in Fig. 1-17.
The locking devices are the two knobs with a little button in their centres: you
have to push it , insert the knob in place and then release it.
