The Wilson Short Load Adapter

 

Have a height limitation? Can't get into the garage? The overpass to low?

 

If you have this problem and you need a shorter antenna, but want maximum performance, then the Wilson Short Load is the answer!

 

Designed for maximum efficiency, it is only 36" and replaces the 62" whip that is standard for the Wilson 1000 and the Wilson 5000.

 

It will also replace the 49" whip that is standard on the Trucker 2000 & 5000 for those drivers concerned about their height restrictions.

 

The band width will still be wide enough for most uses: 1-1.2 MHz, and the power handling is a strong 500 watts.

 

The Short Load adapts to the Wilson 500 and all models of the Wilson 1000, 5000, Trucker 2000 and the Trucker 5000.

 

Easy to tune and install. 

• Loosen set screws in chrome mast of antenna and remove the existing antenna's whip.
• Remove the vinyl cap from the bottom (11" length) portion of the short load.
• Insert the bottom portion into the mast.
• Perform SWR test to determine reading.
• Cut to lowest SWR from the top whip, using bolt cutters or a hacksaw.
• When completed, replace top vinyl cap. 

Note: Do not cut the bottom whip - always trim at top whip.
