Wow! Good find, Alligator! My friend had one of these antennas "back in the day," and they do a great job! However, I don't know where you can get a manual UNLESS Avanti has an old copy on file. Contacting them might be a good place to start. They don't market CB antennas anymore, but I believe that they are still in business. Just type "Avanti" into the Google search engine, and you'll get their address. Have a great day, and congratulations on the find! |

Gator,the Saturn doesnt work like a beam.it is a dual polarity "omni".meaning it is switchable between vertical and horizontal mode radiating in all directions. |
