9.5.5
Initial Conditions
Turn off DVOR AC and DC Circuit Breakers. Do not turn on until instructions indicate to do so.
9.5.6
Sideband Antenna Installation
The sideband antennas must be mounted on a radius of 22 feet from the center of the counterpoise and evenly
spaced at 7.5° intervals. They must be uniform in height and at the same height as the carrier antenna which is
mounted at the center of the counterpoise. There are two methods used in locating the sideband antennas on the
counterpoise mounting rail: the theodolite method and the tape measure and spirit level method. The theodolite
method is the preferred method. Refer to Section 9.4 of the Model 1150A DVOR Antenna Operations and
Maintenance Manual (570002-0001) provided with the 470165-0003 Antenna Kit.
9.5.7
Carrier Antenna Installation
Refer to Section 9.4.4 of the Model 1150A DVOR Antenna Operations and Maintenance Manual (570002-0001)
and drawing 470200 in the 470200 Carrier Antenna kit for details. At this time install optional DME antenna and
cables as shown in 470200 drawing provided with the kit.
9.5.8
Installation of Field Monitor Antenna
Refer to 1150A DVOR Antenna Operations and Maintenance Manual, part no. 570002-0001, for installation
procedures.
9.5.8.1
Installation of Obstruction Lights on Field Monitor Antenna Tower
The use of obstruction lights on the DVOR field monitor antenna tower is on a site by site basis. To determine if
obstruction lights are required refer to FAA Advisory Circular AC 70/7460-1F, for domestic installations.
International installations are dependent upon ICAO and local regulations.
