2.1.2 Antenna and RF Ground
Connections
A wide variety of antennas can be connected to the SG-
211. A set of wing nuts for connecting balanced or
unbalanced antennas is provided on the back.
Optimum use of the SG-211 Smartuner is to put it directly
at the antenna feed point. This may require enclosing it in
a waterproof enclosure to protect it from the weather.
Either a balanced or an unbalanced antenna can be
connected directly to the wing nuts provided on the back
of the coupler.
If the Smartuner must be away from the antenna feed
point, it is best to connect to the antenna with balanced
feed line. The feed line can be connected to the balanced
terminals on the back of the coupler. When it is not
possible to use balanced feedline, then the antenna may be
connected with coax.
