To tune the ALPHA Base Loop Version 2.0 Antenna, follow these steps:
1. Turn the Speed Control xxxx on the Remote Control to the far right, which is the fastest tuning position.
2. Use an inline SWR Meter, your rig's internal SWR meter, or an analyzer to tune for the minimum SWR by pressing and holding either the Red or Green button on the Remote Control. Do not press both buttons at the same time.
3. Note 1: The tuning speed will increase when the Speed xxxx is turned right and decrease when turned left.
4. Note 2: You may listen for the noise floor to peak as an indication that you are close to a minimum SWR. It takes approximately 40 seconds to tune from 40 to 10 meters with the Speed Control xxxx turned right.
5. After performing step 2, you can further tune the Base Loop by slowing the tuning speed. Turn the Speed Control xxxx to the left, which is a slower tuning position. Then tap either the Red or Green button until the SWR on your rig's internal meter, antenna analyzer, or inline SWR meter is as low as possible.
Please refer to the for more detailed instructions and illustrations on tuning the antenna.
