Mounting Instructions

Using the Stinger to Mount to a Model 2175 MiniMast

Do not use the stinger to mount the Model 3142E onto a 4-TR tripod.

The stinger mount provides on-axis rotation during 90

°

horizontal or vertical

polarization. The stinger enables you to mount the antenna directly to an
ETS-Lindgren 7-TR Tripod or mast.

Before you begin:

Install the center rotate boom (part# 108197) for rear-mount

stinger-type antennas.

Attach the included mounting adapter to the Model 3142E as

instructed in Using Included Mounting Adapters on page 20.

You will need one of the optional mounting knobs described in

7-TR and Mast Mounting Options on page 26. To order
optional mounting hardware, contact the ETS-Lindgren Sales
Department

1. Thread the antenna

feed or receiving
cable through the
center of the boom
so that the antenna
connector emerges
a few inches out of
the clamp end of
the boom.
