1. Choosing mounting surface
Surface Selection: The Tango 11A is ground plane independent, however for optimal performance, it is recommended to mount the antenna on a conductive metal panel that extends at least 12.5 cm in all directions.
When installing on a vehicle roof panel, it's important to choose a flat surface. Aim for a central position.
Keep the antenna as far from other roof-mounted items such as the air conditioning unit, light bars, etc., to avoid interference.

2. Preparation:
Preparing the Surface: Mask the chosen mounting area to safeguard the surface.
Start with a pilot hole at the desired location. Gradually enlarge the hole size until it is Ø18 mm in diameter.
Be cautious while drilling, especially in a vehicle, to avoid damaging any underlying structures, like the headliner.
After drilling, deburr and clean the area around the hole meticulously, ensuring all waste is removed.
Strip the paint and primer from the under-panel surface. This step ensures proper contact for grounding with the washer and nut. To prevent rust or corrosion, apply petroleum jelly or paint around the cut edge of the hole.

3. Installation:
Feeding the Cable: Carefully feed the cable of the Tango 11A through the hole you prepared
Mounting the Antenna: Position the threaded part of the antenna through the hole, ensuring it protrudes adequately from the other side.
Securing the Antenna: On the underside of the mounting surface (or inside the vehicle if mounted on a roof), slide the washer onto the protruding threaded section.
Next, twist the nut onto the thread by hand. Once it's threaded correctly, use a spanner or appropriate tool to secure it in place. Make sure it's secure but avoid overtightening, which could damage the antenna or mounting surface.
After securing the antenna, give it a gentle tug to ensure that it's firmly anchored.
