Section 5 Cable Routing • Once you have mounted the antenna in the correct location, plan how to route the cable from this location to the receiver, avoiding blocked passages and any obstructions that could kink, crimp, twist, or chafe the cable. Figure 9 shows typical routing configurations. If the cable will come into contact with a rough metal opening, use a rubber grommet to prevent damage.
