Install the other bands using the following sequence:
  1. Install cable ties at the clamps on all spreaders at 100, 83, 70 and 61inches for the bands 17 – 10.
  2. Connect the driver wires to the center post terminals
  3. String the driver and reflector wires through the cable ties.
  4. Install and adjust the Tip Space assemblies to the specifications for each band.
  5. Adjust the clamp locations on the spreaders to make all wires equally taut. However, the wires for all
    bands except 20 meters should not be tight; they are not used for establishing the shape of the
    spreaders. A little slack will not diminish performance.
  6. Do not use the connector blocks for these bands; they are not necessary and they de-tune the wires.
    Actually, they de-tune the 20 meter wires a little but this has been factored into the design and is not
    significant for 20.
