Mounting and Grounding the B11
The B11 was designed to mate with an antenna using a slip-fit interface. Apply a small amount of o-ring lube to the
dish to ease installation.
Align the radio to the antenna as shown in the photo below and gently apply pressure until the radio seats on the
antenna (you may hear an audible thud when this happens), and then tighten the four bolts with a 5 mm hex key
(Allen) wrench to secure the radio according to the antenna manufacturer's specifications.
Attach a 6 mm
2
(10 AWG) ground wire with a maximum length of 1 m (3.3 feet) between the B11 grounding location
on either side of the radio and a suitable grounding location on the tower or structure. The ground screw type and
length is M5 x 6mm.
The larger 14 mm diameter hole under the grounding location was meant for hoisting the radio using a carabineer
before mating the radio to the dish. Do NOT hoist the radio and dish together from this hole.
