you use the minimum necessary power for the measurement. If possible, use an SWR bridge
separate from that provided in your transceiver. Using a pencil, record your data in the space
provided below.
6.2 FIRST OPERATION
A) If the TITAN has been assembled properly it will resonate close to the selected frequency on
75/80 meters. You should see a useable bandwidth in excess of 100 KHz under normal
operation. Using minimal power, 10 watts or less;
Record the minimum VSWR on 75/80.
2:1 VSWR Hi frequency
2:1 VSWR Low frequency
B) Using minimal power, determine the resonate frequency on 40 meters.

TITAN DX ANTENNA
Congratulations on your purchase of the GAP TITAN antenna. You soon will enjoy the
ultimate in vertical antenna technology. Your GAP antenna has been designed and
manufactured to provide superior performance, and a long trouble free life.
GAP technology produces highly efficient, wide bandwidth performance. As a result, no
tuning is required in most amateur installations. This manual is organized to minimize the
amount of time necessary to assemble and install your GAP vertical. It is recommended
that you follow the instructions and use the figures as a guide.
Before beginning assembly, take a few minutes to read though the site selection chapter
and to review the SAFETY notices. Please refer to Figure 1, the TITAN antenna, as you
proceed with the assembly. Locate the parts, from the parts list in Figure 2. Call GAP direct
if you find anything is missing.
The TITAN DX has been designed to operate efficiently on eight bands at 1500 watts PEP
or less. The TITAN cannot be run continuously ie. Amtor, RTTY etc...at maximum power on
75/80m.
The use of an antenna tuner is not required. Tuners will not improve the performance of the
TITAN, however they may permit a solid state transmitter to put out increased power.
Operation of an antenna tuner when the VSWR is 2:1 or less is permitted. High power
operation outside the specified bands using a tuner can damage the antenna.
