I see what your asking

The insulated wire for receiving can be wraped around the back stay or any other stay but then should jump to the receiver

If your transmitting then the insulated wire should be the same and to,the TX

On the receiver you can try attaching the anntena to anything thats metal and going up!Depends if your boats plastic wood or metal and if the mast is wood or metal

For receive the bigge the antenna the better for TX its better tuned;rx should be tuned but try and do as best
