In plain language: MPAS READY uses two distinct connection families: ring-terminal counterpoise wires and banana-plug radial products. The antenna mount decides which can connect directly.
Why this matters in a Chameleon system
The CHA COUNTERPOISE KIT and EXTRA WIRE use ring terminals in four 25- or 33-foot sets. The DIY kit, WWC-34, and PRV set use banana plugs; the PRV 2.0 set is four 12.5-foot wires.
Build or diagnose it this way
- Use ring terminals under the documented eyelet, SPIKE side screw, or UCM side screw.
- Use banana plugs with the PUCK HUB or the six SURVEYOR-A sockets when documented.
- Use a CHA SS SHACKLE KEY RING through a TDL HUB side hole for the documented ring-terminal path.
- Preserve safe clearances and layout when retuning.
Wrong turns to avoid
- Listing a ring-terminal kit as a direct PUCK HUB connection.
- Claiming the TDL HUB proves an electrical configuration because its threads fit.
- Calling the PRV 12.5-foot set a standard 25-foot kit.
