18 Setting Up the PDL Low Power Base/Repeater
Enclosure
The PDL LPB enclosure is a tough, impact resistant blue
polycarbonate with machined aluminum end caps. Black
bumpers with integrated gaskets provide the first level of shock
protection for the internal components. An additional isolation
system inside the enclosure reduces vibration impact to the
sensitive radio receiver board.
Antenna Mount
The integrated antenna mount provides an industry standard
NMO style RF connector that is compatible with a wide range of
mobile whip antennas.
Range Pole Mount
The bottom end cap is female threaded with 5/8-11 UNC that is
compatible with common range poles. The unit is easily
mounted in the place of a stand-alone antenna and eliminates
the need for an antenna cable.
PDL Low Power Base Setup
Antenna and Antenna Mount
Screw the Antenna on the antenna mount of the PDL LPB. We
recommend inspecting the antenna center push-pin contact to
make sure that it makes good contact with the antenna mount. A
good antenna connection is critical to system performance.
Range Pole or Tripod Side Bracket Mount
Before connecting any cables, screw the PDL LPB onto the
range pole (for tripod-top use) or tripod side mount bracket.
