2.5.1 Mounting/ Installation.
The TA-8 is shipped in a transit case and has room to accommodate
all cables and power supplies. The radome of the TA-8 is designed to
prevent formation of ice and is thus suitable for all climatic conditions.
For mobile applications the TA-8 should be placed as high as is
practically possible to maximize the operating range/ distance.
Ensure that the TA-8 is placed on a horizontal surface that does not
have any transmitters in the immediate vicinity of the chosen location
for the TA-8. It can be placed on the roof of a Humvee or truck
although a higher location will improve operating range.
For fixed installations, a mounting plate can be used to mount the TA-
8 on top of a pole or similar structure.
