Underbumper VHF Antenna BDAS-SB-VHF VERIFY: 1. Vehicle Mounting Surface : In order to achieve the optimum performance from your STI-CO antenna system, verify that the mounting surface is non-metallic and allows for at least five inches of air space from any metal work on the vehicle. Metal bumpers or panels are not suitable mounting surfaces and would result in antenna failure. It is also suggested that the radiating (red) element is positioned as vertical as allowed for. Removal of the vehicle clip may be required to meet the mounting requirements. 2. Part List: The system package includes two dipole assemblies, a splitter, and a small roll of Gorilla Tape. 3. Bandwidth: The VCD is a tunable antenna system that achieves a 24 MHz bandwidth within the range 150 MHz – 174 MHz providing the previous conditions are met. ci-409 Page 1 of 4 REV 000 a 2002 STI-CO INDUSTRIES, INC., 11 Cobham Drive, Orchard Park, NY 14127-4187 Technical Support: E-mail: techsupport@ Phone: 1-716-662-2680 Fax: 1-800-685-1122 Made in U.S.A. INSTALLATION: This antenna is designed with a universal mounting system HOWEVER due to the amount of differences between vehicle platforms we can’t anticipate all of the challenges an installer may face. Installation locations may be anywhere on the front and rear bumper, though it is recommended that the antennas are installed on two opposite corners, as depicted below, to achieve optimum antenna performance. 1. Using a strip of butyl tape, secure the plastic housing of the antenna inside the bumper on the corner of the vehicle. Be sure to orient the antenna as so the radiating element (red
