10-32 x 3/8" nut, 1/2" from the

only a small amount of threaded area
below the nut. Add a second nut to
sandwich the bracket between the two
nuts. See Figure 4. The two long
stubs elements should be on the
same side as the balun. See Figure 5.
17. Install two long fiberglass insulators
over each long stub one approximately
20" and the other 14" from the
unthreaded ends of the long stubs by
clamping them in place with hose
clamps. See Figure 6.
18. Install the remaining long fiberglass
insulators over the short stubs
approximately 5" from the outside
ends of the stubs. See Figure 6.
