Long-Wire Antenna Installation
The antenna supplied with the MICOM-2ET-RDP Option G580 (FLN2615) is a
long-wire antenna. The antenna includes:
• One 18m (60 ft) antenna wire
• One stainless steel earth stake
• One 5m (17 ft) length of coaxial cable fitted with connectors
• Two throw cords with throwing weights
This antenna is supplied wound on one slot of the spool, while the two throw
cords used for installation are wound on the other slot. One of these cords is
attached to the ring element on the antenna wire, and the other to the spool itself.
Both cords have a weight attached to the end of the cord to facilitate their
connection to supports such as poles, towers, trees, etc.
When using a long-wire antenna, the tuner of the MICOM-2ET-RDP must be used.
The antenna can be erected in two different formations: inverted ”L”, or sloping.

Important
When disassembling the antenna, first wind the rope attached to the
plastic element onto the spool, and then wind the rope attached to
the ring element.
When rewinding the antenna onto the spool, take care not to wind it
too tightly, and not to allow the cable to become kinked.
Note
If the tuner option is not turned on at the MICOM-2E radio, the
tuner will not operate. Refer to page 55 of the MICOM-2E/2R
Owner’s Guide for instructions on turning the tuner option on or off
through the radio panel.
