VHF antenna installation
The SAILOR 6248 VHF must be installed with one antenna for VHF RX/TX communication.
You can install all commonly available 50 Ohm antennas covering the appropriate
frequency range and providing a VSWR less than 1.5 over this range.
If further details on equipment and antenna installation, see IMO COMSAR/Circ. 32,
GUIDELINES FOR THE HARMONIZATION OF GMDSS REQUIREMENTS FOR RADIO
INSTALLATIONS ON BOARD SOLAS SHIPS.
2.4.1
Cable requirements
Connect the antennas using a low loss type 50 Ohm coaxial cable, e.g. good quality RG214
or better. It is recommended to use a double screened type cable (like e.g. RG214) with a
maximum insertion loss of 3dB across the antenna cable installation.
The maximum antenna cable length in the installation depends on the quality of the cable,
i.e. the specified attenuation (dB/m) of the cable of choice at the high end of the VHF
frequency band. As a rule of thumb the cable length using e.g. RG214 coaxial cable should
not exceed 25
m.
